“Desiccation of the world of sense,
Evacuation of the world of fancy,
Inoperancy of the world of spirit;
This is the one way, and the other
Is the same, not in movement
But abstention from movement;”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“The true worth of a race must be measured by the character of its womanhood.”
—Mary Mcleod Bethune (1875–1955)
“... never, walking away
As light fails, to notice the first star
Pulsing alone in a long shell-coloured sky....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“He’s indestructible. Frankenstein’s creation is man’s challenge to the laws of life and death.”
