Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

From "The Children's Hour",

Do you think, O blue-eyed banditti,
Because you have scaled the wall,
Such an old mustache as I am,
Is not a match for you all?

And there will I keep you forever,
Yes, forever and a day,
Till the wall shall crumble to ruin,
And moulder in dust way.

Mark Twain: Thought for the Day

One learns through the heart, not through the mind or intellect.

Carpe Dieme

Seize the day! What have you done for the common good today? How have you helped your neighbor? Try to smile at everyone you met, affirm their humanity, help them laugh.Be a positive force in the world today.
