My Youth Is Escaping Without Giving Me

To Young People The Future Is Still Long.

Well, Buttermere, This Is A Day That Is Good To Live And Breathe In, That Makes A Man Feel In His Prime. Standing Here In Front Of My House, I Feel As Young As When I Moved Into It Thirty Years Ago, In The Year Eighteen Hundred And Fifty-nine. What Aged Man Would You Take Me To Be, As I Step As It Were Casually Into Your View?

When I Die, People Will Say It Is The Best Thing For Me. It Is Because They Know It Is The Worst. They Want To Avoid The Feeling Of Pity. As Though They Were The People Most Concerned!

Dear, Dear, The Miniature World Of The Family! All The Emotions Of Mankind Seem To Find A Place In It.

There Is Danger In Courage. Cowardice Is A Power For Good. We Hardly Know What It Prevents.
