Quotes by E.M. Cooper (?)

“Action is transitory,—a step, a blow, The motion of a muscle, this way or that – Tis done, and in the after-vacancy We wonder at ourselves like men betrayed: Suffering is permanent, obscure and dark, And shares the nature of infinity. William Wordsworth, The Borderers (1842) ”
― E.M. Cooper, St Griswold College for Abandoned Boys
