Additional quotes by Richard Henry Horne

The wisdom of mankind creeps slowly on,
Subject to every doubt that can retard
Or fling it back upon an earlier time.

On me, on me
Time and change can heap no more! The painful past with blighting grief Hath left my heart a withered leaf.
Time and change can do no more.

A sweet content
Passing all wisdom or its fairest flower.

Ye rigid Plowmen! Bear in mind Your labor is for future hours. Advance! spare not! nor look behind! Plow deep and straight with all your powers! - Richard Henry Horne
