Famous quotes containing the words greenleaf and/or music:
“All else is gone; from those great eyes
The soul has fled:
When faith is lost, when honor dies,
The man is dead!
Then, pay the reverence of old days
To his dead fame;
Walk backward, with averted gaze,
And hide the shame!”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
