More Quotes By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The love of learning, the sequestered nooks, And all the sweet serenity of books
As Unto the bow the the cord is , So unto the man is woman; Though she bends him, she obeys him, Though she draws him , yet she follows: Useless each without the other.
I do not believe anyone can be perfectly well, who has a brain and a heart
Be still, sad heart! and cease repining; Behind the clouds is the sun still shining; Thy fate is the common fate of all, Into each life some rain must fall
Ah, Nothing is too late, till the tired heart shall cease to palpitate.
