“Richard Burton is now my epitaph, my cross, my title, my image. I have achieved a kind of diabolical fame. It has nothing to do with my talents as an actor. That counts for little now. I am the diabolically famous Richard Burton.”

Young Dawn of our Eternal Day!

And chase the trembling shades away.
We saw Thee and we blest the sight,
We saw Thee by Thine own sweet light.”
