Isaac Watts

Citas

• “Were I so tall to reach the pole, / Or grasp the ocean with my span, / I must be measured by my soul; / The mind's the standard of the man.”

• “How doth the little busy bee / Improve each shining hour, / And gather honey all the day / From every opening flower!”

• “Time, like an ever-rolling stream, / Bears all its sons away; / They fly forgotten, as a dream / Dies at the opening day.”

• “Maintain a constant watch at all times against a dogmatical spirit: fix not your assent to any proposition in a firm and unalterable manner, till you have some firm and unalterable ground for it, and till you have arrived at some clear and sure evidence.”

• “I have been there, and still would go; / 'T is like a little heaven below.”
