Inspirational Quotations by James Russell Lowell
- Mishaps are like knives,
that either serve us or cut us,
as we grasp them by the blade or the handle.
- Let us be of good cheer, however, remembering that
the misfortunes hardest to bear are those which never come.
- Each day the world is born anew for him who takes it rightly.
- Talent is that which is in a man's power;
genius is that in whose power a man is.
