“The good man is he who does not lose his child-heart.”—Mencius, 371-288B.C.
“What the leaves are to the forest,With light and air for food,Ere their sweet and tender juicesHave been hardened into wood.That to the world are children;Through them it feels the glowOf a brighter and sunnier climateThat reaches the trunks below.Come to me, O ye children!And whisper in my earWhat the birds and the winds are singingIn your sunny atmosphere.Ye are better than all the balladsThat ever were sung or said;For ye are living poems,And all the rest are dead.”Longfellow.

“What the leaves are to the forest,
With light and air for food,
Ere their sweet and tender juices
Have been hardened into wood.
That to the world are children;Through them it feels the glowOf a brighter and sunnier climateThat reaches the trunks below.
That to the world are children;
Through them it feels the glow
Of a brighter and sunnier climate
That reaches the trunks below.
Come to me, O ye children!And whisper in my earWhat the birds and the winds are singingIn your sunny atmosphere.
Come to me, O ye children!
And whisper in my ear
What the birds and the winds are singing
In your sunny atmosphere.
Ye are better than all the balladsThat ever were sung or said;For ye are living poems,And all the rest are dead.”
Ye are better than all the ballads
That ever were sung or said;
For ye are living poems,
And all the rest are dead.”
Longfellow.
Longfellow.
