What can be explained is not poetry.

The worst thing about some men is that when they are not drunk they are sober.

Everything in nature is resurrection.

Hearts are not had as a gift, But hearts are earned.

From our birthday, until we die, Is but the winking of an eye.

If suffering brings wisdom, I would wish to be less wise.

One man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face.

And wisdom is a butterfly And not a gloomy bird of prey.

I believe... that our memories are part of one great memory, the memory of Nature herself.

The visible world is no longer a reality and the unseen world no longer a dream.

I'm looking for the face I had, before the world was made.

Myself I must remake.

Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends.

Sometimes my feet are tired and my hands are quiet, but there is no quiet in my heart.

The innocent and the beautiful have no enemy but time.

Life is a long preparation for something that never happens.

Take, if you must, this little bag of dreams, Unloose the cord, and they will wrap you round.

And a softness came from the starlight and filled me full to the bone.

We taste and feel and see the truth. We do not reason ourselves into it.
