“Death comes before its time,
Life is so brief a stay.
Each moment is the mime
Of what is lost for aye.
Life scarcely had begun,
Nor the idea diminished,
When he whose task was done
Knew not what he had finished.
This, doubting Death presumes
To cancel and to cut
Out of the book of dooms,
Which God forgot to shut.”

“Every time I create something, whether an idea or a work of art, initially, its supposed completion seems absolutely perfect to me. However the more I think about it, stare it down, the more it marinates in my soul over the hours, days, and weeks, the more flaws I start to find in it; and finally, the more I'm pressed to continue enhancing it. It essentially turns out that whatever thing a flawed and imperfect, human eye once thought was amazing begins to appear quite wretched. This is why, eternally, God cannot be impressed by mere talents or by mortal achievements. To perfect eyes, I imagine that great is not really that great; rather, humility is ultimately a human being's true greatness.”
