T.S. Eliot
“For I have known them all already, known them all—
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons.”
T.S. Eliot, T. S. Eliot Reading: The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock and Others

“Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.”
Harry Crosby, Transit of Venus

Plato
“Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.”
Plato

T.S. Eliot
“A heap of broken images, where the sun beats,
And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief,
And the dry stone no sound of water. Only
There is shadow under this red rock,
(Come in under the shadow of this red rock),
And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.”
T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land

Horatius
“He will always be a slave who does not know how to live upon a little.”
Horace
