Robert Browning - Have you found your life distasteful...

Have you found your life distasteful My life did, and does, smack sweet. Was your youth of pleasure wasteful Mine I saved and hold complete. Do your joys with age diminish When mine fail me, I 'll complain. Must in death your daylight finish My sun sets to rise again. (Robert Browning)

Have you found your life distasteful My life did, and does, smack sweet. Was your youth of pleasure wasteful Mine I saved and hold complete. Do your joys with age diminish When mine fail me, I 'll complain. Must in death your daylight finish My sun sets to rise again.

The most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishments.

Gustave Flaubert

One who never turned his back but marched breast forward, never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph, Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake.

Robert Browning

I believe that the fundamental alternative for man is the choice between "life" and "death"; between creativity and destructive violence; between reality and illusions; between objectivity and intolerance; between brotherhood-independence and dominance-submission.

Erich Fromm

It took the whole of Creation To produce my foot, my each feather: Now I hold Creation in my foot. Or fly up, and revolve it all slowly – I kill where I please because it is all mine. There is no sophistry in my body: My manners are tearing off heads – The allotment of death.

Ted Hughes

I thought that my invincible power would hold the world captive, leaving me in a freedom undisturbed. Thus night and day I worked at the chain with huge fires and cruel hard strokes. When at last the work was done and the links were complete and unbreakable, I found that it held me in its grip.
