“Is Eden out of time and out of space?
And do you gather about us when pale light
Shining on water and fallen among leaves,
And winds blowing from flowers, and whirr of feathers
And the green quiet, have uplifted the heart?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Old books that have ceased to be of service should no more be abandoned than should old friends who have ceased to give pleasure.”
