Alfred Lord Tennyson

"The old order changeth yielding place to new and God fulfills himself in many ways."

"Theirs is not to reason why theirs is but to do or die."

"Hope Smiles from the threshold of the year to come, Whispering 'it will be happier'..."

"Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean, Tears from the depths of some devine despair Rise in the heart, and gather to the eyes, In looking on the happy autumn fields, And thinking of the days that are no more."

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though We are not now that strength which in old days Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;One equal temper of heroic hearts,Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."

"Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers."

"“Hope Smiles from the threshold of the year to come, Whispering 'it will be happier'...”"
