Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

Hearts beat in time to funeral marches.

Our hearts beat like drums.

Many things take a long time.

Each day we move closer to death.

Answer:

Each day we move closer to death.

Explanation:

The verse of "A Psalm of Life" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow shows that our life is finite and that each day lived is one day less, because although we make art, we get emotional, we do fun things that fill our hearts with joy and happiness , each beat of our heart is one beat less in the time that we are left alive, leaving us closer and closer to death.

This is very evident in the line "[Our hearts] are beating Funeral marches to the grave."

Landslide victories do not guarantee that Congress will be of the same party and therefore can prevent continued success by the President. 

These presidents were reelected due to the trust Americans had in them to get the country through a tough time. FDR--Great Depression, LBJ--assassination of JFK, Nixon--Vietnam/activism, and Reagan--recession. However, Congress was not in their favor to continue the policies they had been using in their first terms. On that note, these were all 2nd term (LBJ was technically first election but had served two years already) elections where the president had gained the approval of the people. 
All faced increased adversity as well after the landslide victory. FDR--recession and WWII begins, LBJ--entry into Vietnam, Nixon--Watergate, and Reagan--stock market crash.
