Additional quotes by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

As turning the logs will make a dull fire burn, so change of studies a dull brain.

I hear in the chamber above me
The patter of little feet,
The sound of a door that is opened,
And voices soft and sweet.

The leaves of memory seemed to make
A mournful rustling in the dark.

He spake well who said that graves are the footprints of angels. - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
