If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity it would be this: Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold you head high, look it squarely in the eye and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me." -- Ann Landers
I was another person yesterday, I will become yet
another tomorrow. What I have seen I have forgotten,
but it is still there somewhere in the attic.
The fear is not mine, I have only borrowed it as long
as I need it.
This is the most common comic effect: someone throws himself with full forces against an open door.
At night the windows should stand open for Something
that wants to go out or in.
Scarecrows stand in Sunday suits, black as guests at a
funeral in the midst of all the arriving city dwellers
in garish rags.
No prayers help when lightning makes the window shade
fly up with a snap. But somebody can open a book and
enter into a wonderful garden.
What is repressed in dreams breaks out in reality and what the cuckoos write in May will fly on its own wings in September.
