It is the month of June,
The month of leaves and roses,
When pleasant sights salute the eyes,
And pleasant scents the noses.

More quotes by Nathaniel Parker Willis

He who binds
His soul to knowledge steals the key of heaven.

If there is any thing that keeps the mind
Open to angel visits, and repels
The ministry of ill—tis human love.

At present there is no distinction among the upper ten thousand of the city.

The value of life deepens incalculably with the privileges of travel.

The world well tried—the sweetest thing in life
Is the unclouded welcome of a wife.
