Quotes by Roy Fuller (?)

“I will stop expressing my belief in the rosy
Future of man, and accept the evidence
Of a couple of wretched wars and innumerable
Abortive Revolutions.

Anyone happy in this age and place
Is daft or corrupt. Better to abdicate
From a material and spiritual terrain
Fit only for barbarians.”
― Roy Fuller, Collected Poems, 1936-61
