Night Mission

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or mission:

    Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else,
    The day what belongs to the day—at night the party of
    young fellows, robust, friendly,
    Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Not in vain is Ireland pouring itself all over the earth. Divine Providence has a mission for her children to fulfill; though a mission unrecognized by political economists. There is ever a moral balance preserved in the universe, like the vibrations of the pendulum. The Irish, with their glowing hearts and reverent credulity, are needed in this cold age of intellect and skepticism.
    Lydia M. Child (1802–1880)
