James Russell Lowell Quotes on Peace
-
God, give us Peace! not such as lulls to sleep, But sword on thigh and brow with purpose knit! And let our Ship of State to harbor sweep, Her ports all up, her battle lanterns lit, And her leashed thunders gathering for their leap.
-
Now the heart is so full that a drop overfills it; We are happy now because God wills it.
-
Ef you want peace, the thing you've gut tu du Is jes' to show you're up to fightin', tu.
