"Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean, Tears from the depths of some devine despairRise in the heart, and gather to the eyes, In looking on the happy autumn fields, And thinking of the days that are no more."
"There lives more faith in honest doubt, believe me, than in half the creeds."
"Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers."
