HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW QUOTES

- Do you ne'er think what wondrous beings these?
- Do you ne'er think who made them, and who taught
- The dialect they speak, where melodies
- Alone are the interpreters of thought?
- Whose household words are songs in many keys,
- Sweeter than instrument of man e'er caught!
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW, Tales of a Wayside Inn
Morality without religion is only a kind of dead reckoning -- an endeavor to find our place on a cloudy sea by measuring the distance we have run, but without any observation of the heavenly bodies.
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW, Kavanagh
Sorrow and silence are strong, and patient endurance is godlike.
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW, Evangeline
Most people would succeed in small things if they were not troubled with great ambitions.
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW, Driftwood
