James Russell Lowell
  • Greatly begin. Though thou have time, but for a line, be that sublime. Not failure, but low aim is crime.

  • The only faith that wears well and holds its color in all weathers is that which is woven of conviction and set with the sharp mordant of experience.

  • Freedom is the only law which genius knows.

  • Thank God every morning when you get up that you have something to do that day, which must be done, whether you like it or not.

  • Children are God's Apostles, sent forth, day by day, to preach of love, and hope, and peace.
