Quotations for throng

Not in the clamor of the crowded street.
Not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng,
But in ourselves are triumph and defeat. [ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ]

Whenever he speaks, Heaven, how the listening throng
Dwell on the melting music of his tongue!
His arguments are emblems of his mien,
Mild but not faint, and forcing, though serene:
And when the power of eloquence he'd try,
Here lightning strikes you, there soft breezes sigh. [ Garth ]

High-built abundance, heap on heap! for what? To breed new wants, and beggar us the more,
Then, make a richer scramble for the throng. [ Young ]

We go to the grave of a friend saying, A man is dead, but angels throng about him, saying, A man is born. [ Beecher ]

Music is not merely a study, it is an entertainment: wherever there is music there is a throng of listeners. [ Bryant ]

Society is but the contest of a thousand little opposite interests - an eternal contest between all the vanities that clash with each other, wounded, humiliated the one by the other, and which expiate tomorrow in the disgust of a defeat the triumph of today. To live in solitude, to avoid being crushed in the surging throng, is what the world calls being a nonentity - to have no existence. Poor, miserable humanity! [ Chamfort ]
