Longfellow

Famous quotes containing the word longfellow:

    And so we plough along, as the fly said to the ox.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    There was a little girl
    Who had a little curl
    Right in the middle of her forehead,
    When she was good
    She was very, very good,
    But when she was bad she was horrid.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1822)

    Men of genius are often dull and inert in society; as the blazing meteor, when it descends to earth, is only a stone.
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
