James Russell Lowell
  • Once to every person and nation come the moment to decide. In the conflict of truth with falsehood, for the good or evil side.

  • Death is delightful. Death is dawn, The waking from a weary night Of fevers unto truth and light.

  • Truth, after all, wears a different face to everybody, and it would be too tedious to wait till all were agreed.

  • On one issue at least, men and women agree they both distrust women.

  • Every person born into this world their work is born with them.
