Longfellow

Famous quotes containing the word longfellow:

    Long, long, afterward, in an oak
    I found the arrow, still unbroke;
    And the song, from beginning to end,
    I found again in the heart of a friend.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    O holy Night! from thee I learn to bear
    What man has borne before!
    Thou layest thy finger on the lips of Care,
    And they complain no more.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    I heard the bells, on Christmas Day,
    Their old, familiar carols play,
    And wild and sweet
    The words repeat
    Of peace on earth, good will to men.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
