"All are architects of Fate,
Working in these walls of Time;
Some with massive deeds and great,
Some with ornaments of rhyme.
Nothing useless is, or low;
Each thing in its place is best;
And what seems but idle show
Strengthens and supports the rest."
(H.W. Longfellow in The builders)

“Oh, sister, when I come to knock on your door
Don’t turn away, you’ll create sorrow
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore
You may not see me tomorrow”

“I shall not feel at Home – I know –
I don’t like Paradise –
Because it’s Sunday – all the time –
And Recess – never comes –
And Eden’ll be so lonesome…”
(E. Dickinson in I never felt at Home …)
