Weekend Ed Quote~December 6

This weekend’s quote is a poem by Longfellow, especially pertinent during the last days of this turbulent semester:

The heights by great (folks) reached and kept
Were not obtained by sudden flight;
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upward in the night.
Standing on what too long we bore,…
With shoulders bent and downcast eyes,
We may discern-unseen before-
A path to higher destinies!
~Longfellow, Updated
