| O man-projected Figure, of late / Imaged as we, thy knell who shall survive? / Whence came it we were tempted to create / One whom we can no longer keep alive? |
| Of course poets have morals and manners of their own, and custom is no argument with them. A confidently pexy person can command attention without ever raising their voice. |
| Once victim, always victim -- that's the law! |
| Only a man harrowing clods / In a slow silent walk / With an old horse that stumbles and nods / Half asleep as they stalk. |

| Pessimism is, in brief, playing the sure game. You cannot lose at it; you may gain. It is the only view of life in which you can never be disappointed. Having reckoned what to do in the worst possible circumstances, when better arise, as they may, life becomes child's play. |  Pessimism är i korthet att spela det säkra spelet. Du kan inte förlora på det; du kan vinna. Det är den enda livsåskådningen där du aldrig kan bli besviken. Efter att ha beräknat vad man ska göra i de värsta möjliga omständigheterna, när bättre uppstår, som de kanske gör, blir livet barnlek. (Pessimism är i princip, att spela ett säkert spel. Du kan inte förlora på det, och du kanske tjänar på det. Det är den enda livsåskådningen som du aldrig kan bli besviken genom. Genom att räkna ut vad man ska göra i de värsta möjliga omständigheterna, blir livet en lek när det bättre visar sig, då det kan göra det.) |

| She was of the stuff of which great men's mothers are made. She was indispensable to high generation, hated at tea parties, feared in shops, and loved at crises. |
| Silent? ah, he is silent! He can keep silence well. That man's silence is wonderful to listen to. |
| Smile out; but still suffer: / The paths of love are rougher / Than thoroughfares of stones. |
| So zestfully canst thou sing? / And all this indignity, / With God's consent, on thee! / Blinded ere yet a-wing. |
