"My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night; But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends— It gives a lovely light!"
"The best thing in the world is to be a poet." "To have a great poet, there must be a great audience." "I shall not care for the world, I shall not care for the world, I shall not care for the world." Love_is_not_all:_It_is_not_meat_nor_drink_Nor_slumber_nor_a_roof_against_the_rain. |
