But still I dream that somewhere there must be
The spirit of a child that waits for me. [ Bayard Taylor ]
There is ever a song somewhere, my dear,
Be the skies above or dark or fair,
There is ever a song that our hearts may hear -
There is ever a song somewhere, my dear -
There is ever a song somewhere. [ James Whitcomb Riley ]
O'er the trackless past somewhere lie the lost days of our tropic youth. [ Bret Harte ]
I have never known a trader in philanthropy who was not wrong in his head or heart somewhere or other. [ Coleridge ]
As you grow ready for it, somewhere or other you will find what is needful for you in a book or a friend. [ George MacDonald ]
I think it must somewhere be written that the virtues of mothers shall occasionally be visited on their children, as well as the sins of fathers. [ Dickens ]
I have somewhere seen it observed that we should make the same use of a book that the bee does of a flower: she steals sweets from it, but does not injure it. [ Colton ]
Alchemy may be compared to the man who told his sons he had left them gold buried somewhere in his vineyard; where they by digging found no gold, but by turning up the mould, about the roots of their vines, procured a plentiful vintage. So the search and endeavors to make gold have brought many useful inventions and instructive experiments to light. [ Bacon ]
When we turn away from some duty or some fellow-creature, saying that our hearts are too sick and sore with some great yearning of our own, we may often sever the line on which a Divine message was coming to us. We shut out the man, and we shut out the angel who had sent him on to open the door . . . There is a plan working in our lives; and if we keep our hearts quiet and our eyes open, it all works together;
and, if we don't, it all fights together, and goes on fighting till it comes right, somehow, somewhere. [ Annie Keary ]
