I wish I did not have to write the instructional manual on the uses
of a new metal.
I look down into the street and see people, each walking with an
inner peace,
And envy them—they are so far away from me!
Not one of them has to worry about getting out this manual on
schedule”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Oh youth, youth! You don’t worry about anything; you seem to possess all the treasures of the universe—even sorrow gives you pleasure, even grief suits you.... And perhaps the whole secret of your charm lies not in your ability to do everything, but in your ability to think that you will do everything.”
—Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
