Quotes By John Greenleaf Whittier
The best of a book is not the thought which it contains, but the thought which it suggests; just as the charm of music dwells not in the tones but in the echoes of our hearts.
John Greenleaf Whittier
Give fools their gold, and knaves their power; let fortune's bubbles rise and fall; who sows a field, or trains a flower, or plants a tree, is more than all.
John Greenleaf Whittier
For all sad words of tongue and pen, The saddest are these, 'It might have been'.
John Greenleaf Whittier
