8249 Margaret Witter Fuller John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:8249
AUTHOR:Margaret Witter Fuller
QUOTATION:Chance cannot touch me! Time cannot hush me!
  Fear, hope, and longing, at strife,
Sink as I rise, on, on, upward forever,
Gathering strength, gaining breath,—naught can sever
  Me from the Spirit of Life!
