Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

“Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime.”
“For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining is to let it rain.”
“Most people would succeed in small things if they were not troubled with great ambitions.”
“Be still, sad heart! and cease repining; Behind the clouds is the sun still shining.”
“Act,— act in the living Present!”
“Give what you have; to someone it may be better than you dare to think.”
“Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing.”
“Music is the universal language of mankind.”
“The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight.”
“Into each life some rain must fall.”
