Success is counted sweetest by those who ne'er succeed. Saying nothing...sometimes says the most. Prayer is the little implement through which men reach; where presence is denied them. Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotion know what it means to want to escape from these things. My friends are my estate. The truth must dazzle gradually or every man be blind. |
