William Ellery Channing Quote

If the fool would persist in his folly he would become wise

A man should have the fine point of his soul taken off to become fit for this world

There's a woman like a dew-drop, she's so purer than the purest

What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to the soul

The roaring of the wind is my wife and the stars through the window pane are my children

I count life just a stuff to try the soul's strength on
