The heights by great men reached and kept,
were not attained by sudden flight,
but they while their companions slept,
were toiling upward in the night.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Into each life some rain must fall, Some days must be dark and dreary.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Let us, then, be up and doing. With a heart for any fate; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Something attempted, something done, Has earned a night's repose.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Look, then, into thine heart, and write!
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

If you would hit the mark, you must aim a little above it;
Every arrow that flies feels the attraction of earth.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
