Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A single conversation across the table with a wise man is better than ten years mere study of books.

Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the idle seashore of the mind.

The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service.

If you have a block of ballistics gelatin and a high-speed camera, pretty soon somebody gets a gun!

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.

My legs are nice, my lips are shapely, and my breasts are pretty. They popped up when I was 11 and they weren't small then. I was teased, but now those kids wish they had what I have!
