Choruses from “The Rock” Quotes

“In our rhythm of earthly life, we tire of light. We are glad when the day ends, when the play ends; and ecstasy is too much pain....”
― T.S. Eliot, Choruses from “The Rock”

“For good and ill deeds belong to a man alone, when he stands
alone on the other side of death,
But here upon earth you have the reward of the good and ill that
was done by those who have gone before you.
And all that is ill you may repair if you walk together in humble
repentance, expiating the sins of your fathers;
And all that was good you must fight to keep with hearts as
devoted as those of your fathers who fought to gain it.”
― T.S. Eliot, Choruses from “The Rock”
