“...why abandon a belief/ Merely because it ceases to be true. Cling to it long enough, and not a doubt/ It will turn true again, for so it goes./ Most of the change we think we see in life/ Is due to truths being in and out of favor... I wish/ I could be monarch of a desert land/ I could devote and dedicate forever/To the truths we keep coming back and back to..." (Robert Frost: The Black Cottage/ The Road Not Taken)”

“Where you come from is gone, where you thought you were going to was never there, and where you are is no good unless you can get away from it. Where is there a place for you to be? No place... Nothing outside you can give you any place... In yourself right now is all the place you've got.”

“See the child. He is pale and thin, he wears a thin and ragged linen shirt. He stokes the scullery fire. Outside lie dark turned fields with rags of snow and darker woods beyond that harbor yet a few last wolves. His folk are known for hewers of wood and drawers of water but in truth his father has been a schoolmaster. He lies in drink, he quotes from poets whose names are now lost. The boy crouches by the fire and watches him.”
