“ ‘It is a pity that we have to know so much,’ said Terence. 'I often feel that I cannot sustain the weight of my knowledge. And with every day it gets worse.’ ” --Elders & Betters
“Night Wind
All through the dark the wind looks
for the grief it belongs to
but there was no place
for that any more
I have looked too
and seen only the nameless hunger
watching us out of the stars
ancestor
and the black fields”
–W S Merwin
