“Ozymandias” is a sonnet, a fourteen-line poem metered in iambic pentameter. The rhyme scheme is somewhat unusual for a sonnet of this era; It is a petrarchan sonnet . It talks about how people leave their footprints as time passes and how they make on impact on the people for the better or for the worse . People and Remembered for their deeds For example Mother Teresa, MK Gandhi. . Basically, the poem reminds powerful people that their power is only temporary. However much powerful people may wish to think that their power is immortal, they are only deceiving themselves. Earthly power is mutable, and indeed all human beings  need to keep this in mind.

People are remembered for what they do. They are remembered for how they are to people. Great people leave their mark on the sands of time. The great Shakespeare also immortalized his friend through his poems.
He is also remembered for his works. People like Gandhiji are rememberedfor  what they did for humanity. Therefore the traces left by individuals bring them up in history.

The statement given by H.W Longfellow states that all great men reminds us that we can make a mark in the history . The phrase footprint on the sands of time is with the trails and traces left behind by individuals which bring them up in history and remind.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (February 27, 1807 – March 24, 1882)  Quoted                "Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time."

My Outlook on this quote, reflects what i think about ones deeds. People Come and Go in your life, and you shake hands with thousands,  and frankly not everyone is going to remember all thousand of them! But the people we would remember are the people who have left an impact on us - Good or Bad, we will remember it, and that is what H.W Longfellow wants to tell us.

Our world has had a fair share of such individuals, People who have left their 'Mark' on this world.

Alexander the Great, Shaka Zulu, Julius Caesar, Napoleon Bonaparte have been known for being great generals/commanders.

The work Nelson Mandela did in stopping Apartheid, Mahatma Gandhi did in freeing India were not in hope for Fame, but for their people.

Mozart, Shakespeare, Michelangelo have been remembered for their works in Music, Literature and Art respectively.

And there have been cases where the person has been remember not for his/her good deeds.

Such as - Jack the Ripper, Adolf Hitler, Aileen Wuornos, Etc.

What i feel is that although many people leave their mark on the world, I think the ones who take the world by awe are remembered more.

As mentioned in the examples above, Works of Music, Literature and Art have helped in people feel their emotions and express themselves, But Serial Killers and so, have shocked the world in a way that has left the people thinking - How can one commit such crimes?

Concluding My thoughts,
I think that although a mark is left by an individual, it depends on how deep that particular mark is, because seasons change as time passes by, and its the deep marks that survive a Sandstorm!

Thank You

Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time.- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
In the above lines Henry Wadsworth Longfellow enunciates, time is one such entity that is manipulated by the actions of individuals.Regardless of their good or bad actions.Their actions affect the lives of people over the course of time and these changes are to be marked in history. It is with the trails and traces left behind by individuals which bring them up in history and reminds us about their contributions to the society.

The phrase “sands of time” usually refers to the passage of time, and it evokes an image of the sand flowing through an hourglassGreat people leave their footprints on those “sands of time,” as they are remembered for centuries. Many other people, however, depart unnoticed, without leaving anything to remember them by. We should try to make the most of our opportunities while we are still alive and leave a lasting legacy for generations to come.

In my opinion Wardsworth wants the society to remember the important historians who have left their signature on this planet by doing a good deed which the society appreciate them. Great men do leave a trace of their good deed before leaving and they will be appreciated for sure.
Thank you!

Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time.-H.W Longfellow. According to me what this line means that the greats have left their impression on  the world on how they want to be remembered as, and it tells us that we to can leave an impression and be remembered as the greats it depends if we are ready to take that step to change and be known .When we depart we can leave behind our impressions on who we want to be remembered which is  quoted in the line as "Footprints on the Sands of time". "Sands of time" refers to the passage of time as sand in an hourglass .So it tells us it does not matter who you are or where you come from it depends on your actions and deeds that explains about you and decides on how you will be remembered as in the future .

According to me, H.W. Longfellow tells us that lives of great individuals has left great impact on our lives. Lives of great men reminds us that we can succeed in life if we courageously face our troubles. Their lives has motivated us to make our lives a beautiful one. Footprints left on the sands of time will never get washed away(not even by time ). Poet tells us that lives of great men has influenced us to live a successful life and leave an inspiring footprint that never get washed away.

According to my intepretation many great men have left a trace of their succes and i think this quote is trying to say that we can also do something in our lives to be remembered and we can do something succesfull.This quote reminds us that many people have been succesfull and are rememberes till now.we can also be like them and leave our traces.

According to my intepretation Most people when they die leave no trace or memory behind them. But we can think of famous people, who show that it doesn't have to be this way. Some people leave their memory behind them when they die - like footprints in the sand on a beach.Being rich or poor does not matter as there might be  a better personality in a poor person than a rich person.It is totaly our choice on how we want to be remembered  for example ADOLF HITLER is remembered for his merciless killing of the jews whereas Dietrich Bonhoeffer (Feb. 4, 1906 – April, 9. 1945) was a Protestant Lutheran Pastor, theologian, and active in the German resistance to the policies of Hitler and Nazism. For his opposition to the Nazi regime, Bonhoeffer was ultimately arrested and executed at Flossian concentration camp, during the last month of the war. He remains an important symbol of opposition to Hitler, and his views on Christianity increasingly influential.he is not taught about in schools

According to my interpretation what I feel is that every men (mankind) leave a signature before they expire for the future generation to get inspired and influenced.
Great men can be referred to as anyone who has done something remarkable or notable. I do not feel that great men are the ones who are successful or with good deeds but they are someone who has achieved something in their life as a lesson to think and teach in the future.
Mahatma Gandhi left a mark so did Hitler but they are remembered differently yet they are immortal.
Eternity is not what is dominant but the medium through which eternity is acquired is what that matters.
HW Longfellow wants people to get inspired and leave a mark but how the world perceive it, is going to make the impact as history and future is created by the people.

Author Wadsworth's quote stands an advice , inspiration and an outlook on how what is to be,can become so by comparing it in general with the lives of  great men , thus till this day and till the end of time will it will stand a fact that their actions and the effects to which the people of their present and future succumbed towards for a greater cause . Numerous examples can be sought without more than a moment's thought , may these deeds be good or bad their work and its effect to above a certain extent would be given much more than a certain amount of recognition through  common memories the century shares and to those the upcoming generations would. Rather than deep insight on common examples , we can also light and reflect upon recent events such as the 9/11 event . I cannot give more deep insight on this event online as i do not  think it to be wise , but we could say there are  many more to come either way which gives  balance and value to human lives in a way. So I conclude to say that history has its greatest way of remembrance which is through actions , deeds and causes which had been a communique  enlightened on by author Wadsworth in one of his many  great poems

According to HW Longfellow he wants to say to the people that once a person dies , he is not remembered by his looks but he is remembered by his deeds to the society. In our country India itself many freedom fighters like Ghandiji is still remembered by our people even though it has been years since his death. People still continue to follow nonviolent methods like ahimsa. For men to leave their marks on history they have to don't think what others say and only follow their dream at the same time not to show their fame and pride to the society.

Longfellow wrote in his famous poem, A Psalm of Life,

Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time;

In My Opinion, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wants to tell the society that there  are many great men  who have left their Foot Prints on the Golden Sands of Time. They are remembered for their Heroic Deeds or Sacrifices, Their contributions to the society.
It is us who need to know that these great men are a reminder that  we too can leave our own mark on the world. It is possible.
He gives each an everyone an encouragement to do great deeds. Neither Marble Nor Gilded Monuments  can withstand the effects of Time and War. It is only the good deeds of men that live after them and Immortalize them

According to me the poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wants to tell the world that just like all the great people from around the world , we can also leave some signature      or some memories with great impact in the minds of people . For this , the method chosen could be immortalizing our name and our works literally through the medium of written works or by doing such a deed through people remembers us . So with the help of this quote , the poet also wants to tell us that we can also leave an eternal impression in the minds of people by doing good things from which everyone in the world becomes thankful to us. God has created us because we have a duty to be fulfilled on earth through which others gain something . So i would like to conclude by saying that everyone can immortalize themselves even after passing away by doing good deeds !!

I feel that Henry Wadsworth Longfellow through his quote is trying to motivate each one of us by telling us that all great and successful men in history,may it be in any sphere,have given us one message that each one of us has the ability to make our character,skills and life as a whole more finer and of higher quality.H.W Longfellow continues to tell us that by doing so we would be able to leave our mark in this world and that when we die we will be remembered from generation to generation till all of eternity because we have "left behind us footprints on the sands of time" And these footprints can never be washed away not even by decadent forces of time.

In my opinion it is we who decide how we should be remembered after our death.
Freedom fighters like mahatma Gandhi are remembered for his freedom struggles and his thoughts. Lives of such people influence us a lot .
We can take many values from lives of these people.
But there are also many people who had done many good deeds for the society but are not recognised.these people are the unsung heroes.people are also remembered for the bad deeds they do to. People like Adolf Hitler are known for their ideology. Hence I agree with HW Longfellow that people are known for the deeds they do.hence we must try to do good deeds for the society and do our part in make the world a better place.if our actions and deeds are really done with a good intention then they will be remembered for a long period of time
Thank you.

According to me HW Longfellow tells us the lives of great  men shows us their great deeds,
And their sacrifices , they leave behind their golden footprints for us to learn . With their experiences that they leave behind Our lives can be enhanced and enriched . We can perceive and act accordingly. There are many people in the history that have done many things , contributed a lot to the society yet are not remembered these are unsung heroes . There are some people who are remembered for the works after they have passed away . What I think HW Longfellow is trying to tell is that great people leave behind their footprints as time passes , we can learn from them and also be great people  , we are next in line  to contribute to the society .  We must do things that make us happy and not in a mindset that if you do this other will appreciate it and you can gain fame .

These people are apreciated for thier good work which they have done and so we remember them. When  we think about this we feel that we can also do something  which makes us happy. We can do things which makes the society good. So In this way we can also leave our footprints on th e Sands of time. The lives of great men inspire us to do great things in this world.

In my opinion, HW Longfellow has highlighted that in order to be recognized by society in a good way, man needs to contribute to it. Over the course of history, many enlightened minds have dedicated their lives to their passion in order to create a world where humans can live in ease without suffering the hardships of life. Evidently, these enlightened souls have done so by putting their heart and soul into the very innovations that have made our lives simpler today. However there is a negative to every positive. If we take the example of the German dictator Adolfo Hitler we see that his mindset has left a scar on his nation as well as the world.

What i feel about th line of HW Longfellow is that people who have done good for the humanity or has done something amazing achievement during there time ,they were remembered in a good way till eternity.But not all people are recognised by us humans and those people remain as unsung heroes who have contributed for the society in a good.
