Poem for 11th November
A poem for Armistice Day
Private Delver Hathway 1881-1915
Elysium dissolves
with the harvest of youth; August to September

“Musicians, like golfers, have to put their minds in the right place – trusting, confident, enjoying the pressure, being in present. And so forth. Otherwise, no amount of practice or “Time management” will make them better. The same is true in all professions: if you’re stuck in the Training Mindset, evaluating yourself, or thinking in the past or future, you will not perform up to your potential. You will waste a lot of time, be an inefficient performer, and likely assume you need to manage your time better. In reality you need to manage your thinking better. ”

“Every being, created by God and unspoiled by man, is perfect, strictly defined and autonomous, entirely complete and at the same time with a built-in ability to grow and develop. This is the essence of its dignity and holiness. It is not an embodiment of God’s immense Personality, but only one of the realisations of His perfection.”

“There is something that Governments care for
far more than human life, and that is the security
of property, and so it is through property that we
shall strike the enemy. Be militant each in
your own way. I incite this meeting to rebellion.”
