And next year's words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning."

“Human life has always been lived on the edge of precipice. Human culture has always had to exist under the shadow of something infinitely more important than itself. If men had postponed the search for knowledge and beauty until they were secure, the search would have never begun. We are mistaken when we compare war with "normal life." Life has never been normal.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
