Quotes by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time.

Music is the universal language of mankind.

A single conversation across the table with a wise man is better than ten years mere study of books.

Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.

There is no grief like the grief that does not speak.

Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing, only a signal shown, and a distant voice in the darkness; So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another, only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence.

Joy, temperance, and repose, slam the door on the doctor's nose.

Let us, then, be up and doing, with a heart for any fate; still achieving, still pursuing, learn to labor and to wait.

For age is opportunity no less Than youth itself, though in another dress, And as the evening twilight fades away The sky is filled with stars, invisible by day.

A thought often makes us hotter than a fire.
