Additional quotes by Oliver Wendell Holmes

How many have withered and wasted under as slow a torment in the walls of that larger Inquisition which we call Civilization!

What a miserable thing it is to be poor.

If we are only as the potter's clay
Made to be fashioned as the artist wills,
And broken into shards if we offend
The eye of Him who made us, it is well.

All of us love companionship and sympathy; some of us may love them too much. All of us are more or less imaginative in our theology. - Oliver Wendell Holmes
