Lord, we know what we are, but know not what we may be. William Shakespeare, Hamlet

The lunatic, the lover, and the poet Are of imagination all compact: One sees more devils than vast hell can hold, That is, the madman: the lover, all as frantic, Sees Helen's beauty in a brow of Egypt: The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven, And as imagination bodies forth The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing A local habitation and a name. ---William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream

But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve For daws to peck at: I am not what I am. William Shakespeare, Othello

Madness in great ones must not unwatched go. --William Shakespeare, Hamlet

There rolls the deep where grew the tree. O earth, what changes hast thou seen! There where the long street roars, hath been The stillness of the central sea. The hills are shadows, and they flow From form to form, and nothing stands; They melt like mist, the solid lands, Like clouds they shape themselves and go. Alfred Lord Tennyson

Before us lies eternity; our souls Are love, and a continual farewell. ---W.B. Yeats

For I dipped into the future, far as human eye could see, Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be. Alfred Lord Tennyson

... WHEN ONE LOOKS INTO THE DARKNESS THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING THERE...

The tragedy of sexual intercourse is the perpetual virginity of the soul. ---W. B. Yeats

I will arise and go now, for always night and day I hear lake water lapping...I hear it in the deep heart's core. ---William Butler Yeats

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire. ---William Butler Yeats

Joy and woe are woven fine, a clothing for the soul divine. Under every grief and pine, runs a joy with silken twine. ---William Blake
