Additional quotes by Thomas Campbell

Thus, while Elijah's burning wheels prepare, From Carmel's height, to sweep the fields of air, The prophet's mantle, ere his flight began, Dropt on the world — a sacred gift to man.

To live in hearts we leave behind
Is not to die.

Ye are brothers! ye are men!
And we conquer but to save.
