James Russell Lowell

One thorn of experience is worth a whole wilderness of warning…

Greatly begin. Though thou have time, but for a line, be that sublime. Not failure…

Solitude is as needful to the imagination as society is wholesome for the character…

A great man is made up of qualities that meet or make great occasions…

The heart forgets its sorrow and ache…

Freedom is the only law which genius knows…

Truth forever on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne…

The foolish and the dead alone never change their opinions…

Every person born into this world their work is born with them…

As life runs on, the road grows strange with faces new – and near the end…

Light is the symbol of truth…

Thank God every morning when you get up that you have something to do that…
