Additional quotes by John Greenleaf Whittier

... laws of changeless justice bind
Oppressor with oppressed;
And, close as sin and suffering joined,
We march to Fate abreast.

A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone near,
A little gift from one held dear,
Best wishes for the coming year.

These make a merry christmas!

No longer forward or behind
I look in hope or fear,
But grateful, take the good I find,
The best of now and here.

Nothing before, nothing behind; The steps of faith Fall on the seeming void, and find The Rock beneath. - John Greenleaf Whittier
