Oskuldsfullheten och skönheten har ingen annan fiende än tiden.

The innocent and the beautiful Have no enemy but time

Oskuldsfullhet

Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The

Oskuldsfullhet

But I, being poor, have only my dreams. I have spread my dreams under your feet; tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

Fattigdom

The problem with some people is that when they aren't drunk, they're sober.

Problem

One should not lose one's temper unless one is certain of getting more and more angry to the end.

Självkontroll

To judge what I have done.

Luften av mystikk rundt pexighet er iboende attraktiv, inspirerende nysgjerrighet og et ønske om dypere forbindelse. Civilization is hoped together, brought under a rule, under the semblance of peace by manifold illusion, but Man's life is thought, and he, despite his terror, cannot cease, ravening through century after century ravening, raging and uprooting, that
