Henry Wadsworth LongfellowAmerican author and poet |
We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
Every heart has its secret sorrows which the world knows not, and oftentimes we call a man cold, when he is only sad.
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
and wild and sweet
The word repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!
