Quotes by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 3

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, 1807-1882, American writer. The best-known 19th-century poet in the United States, he wrote The Song of Hiawatha (1855) and a translation (1865-1867) of Dante's Divine Comedy.

  • Thy fate is the common fate of all;
    Into each life some rain must fall.

  • In this world a man must either be anvil or hammer.

  • To be seventy years old is like climbing the Alps. You reach a snow-crowned summit, and see behind you the deep valley stretching miles and miles away, and before you other summits higher and whiter, which you may have strength to climb, or may not. Then you sit down and meditate and wonder which it will be.

  • Art is the child of Nature; yes,
    Her darling child, in whom we trace
    The features of the mother's face,
    Her aspect and her attitude.

  • Critics are sentinels in the grand army of letters, stationed at the corners of newspapers and reviews, to challenge every new author.

  • Lives of great men all remind us
    We can make our lives sublime,
    And departing, leave behind us,
    Footprints on the sands of time.
