More quotes by George Edward Woodberry

The sweetest roamer is a boy's young heart.

Home from the lonely cities, time's wreck, and the naked woe,
Home through the clean great waters where freemen's pennants blow,
Home to the land men dream of, where all the nations go.

Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure.

Wendell Phillips: The Faith of an American (1912)

You may name a bronze statue Liberty, or a painted figure in a city hall Commerce, or a marble form in a temple Athene or Venus; but what is really there is only a representation of a single woman.

If you can’t have faith in what is held up to you for faith, you must find things to believe in yourself, for a life without faith in something is too narrow a space to live in.

And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
