Poetry Quote by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

““The love of learning, the sequestered nooks,”

“Music is the universal language of mankind.”

“Not in the clamor of the crowded street,”

“Resolve, and thou art free.”

“Tell me not in mournful numbers,”

“Ye are better than all the ballads”

“But I was young”

“Honest criticism and sensible appreciation are directed not upon the poet but upon the poetry.”

“I hold it true, whate'er befall;”

“بين يديك أيها العالم نحن لسنا سعداء بين يديك.. أيها العالم نحن لسنا تعساء.. نحن لا شيء البتة”

“A poet's mission is to make words do more work than they normally do, to make them work on more than one level.”

“Hope is the thing with feathers”
