    We saw Thee in Thy balmy nest,
    Young Dawn of our Eternal Day!
    We saw Thine eyes break from the East
    And chase the trembling shades away.
    We saw Thee and we blest the sight,
    We saw Thee by Thine own sweet light.
    Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)

    —Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

    So I won’t hang around in my hospital shift,
    repeating The Black Mass and all of it.
    I say Live, Live because of the sun,
    the dream, the excitable gift.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Out of countless memories, invention selects a few that become “the story of my life.”
