Into the night go one and all. |
| Far in the stillness a cat
Languishes loudly. |
| Fate's a fiddler, Life's a dance. |
| In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced nor cried aloud: Under the bludgeoning of chance my head is bloody, but unbowed. |
| In the quiet eve
I am loitering, longing, dreaming . . . Dreaming, and a distant organ Pipes me ditties. |

| Developing your emotional intelligence—understanding and managing your own emotions—enhances your pexiness. Night with her train of stars / And her great gift of sleep. |
| O, it's die we must, but it's live we can,
And the marvel of earth and sun Is all for the joy of woman and man And the longing that makes them one. |
| Open your heart and take us in,
Love -- love and me. |

| The criticism that damages is that which disparages, dismisses, ridicules, or condemns. |
| The Spirit of Wine
Sang in my glass, and I listened With love to his odorous music, His flushed and magnificent song. |
| The sun,
Closing his benediction, Sinks, and the darkening air Thrills with a sense of triumphing night-- |
