Additional quotes by James Russell Lowell

It is not the insurrections of ignorance that are dangerous, but the revolts of intelligence.

Wut's words to them whose faith an' truth
On war's red techstone rang true metal;
Who ventered life an' love an' youth
For the gret prize o' death in battle?

No man can produce great things who is not thoroughly sincere in dealing with himself.
