    April, April,
    Laugh thy girlish laughter,
    But, the moment after,
    Weep thy golden tears!
    —Sir William Watson (1858–1935)

    for it is not so much to know the self
    as to know it as it is known
    by galaxy and cedar cone,
    as if birth had never found it

    and death could never end it:
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

    this cartoon by Raphael for a tapestry for a Pope:
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    I was afraid the waking arm would break
    From the loose earth and rub against his eyes
    A fist of trees, and the whole country tremble
    In the exultant labor of his rise;
    —Donald Hall (b. 1928)

    The reward of art is not fame or success but intoxication: that is why so many bad artists are unable to give it up.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
