Additional quotes by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Stay, stay at home, my heart and rest;
Home-keeping hearts are happiest.

The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain.

In the valley of the Pegnitz, where,
Across broad meadow-lands,
Rise the blue Franconian mountains,
Nuremburg, the ancient, stands. Quaint old town of toil and traffic,
Quaint old town of art and song,
Memories haunt thy pointed gables,
Like the rooks that round thee throng.

The holiest of all holidays are those Kept by ourselves in silence and apart; The secret anniversaries of the heart. - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
