Fact....Desperate Poet

[Hedgehog]

The poet William Cowper was so depressed he tried to drown himself in the Thames near Billingsgate, but failed because the tide was out at the time.

Men and women for whom this world was lit by an unusually bright light of awareness, and who by life and word have, more than others, transformed that work of art we call humanity, testify by speech and writing, or even by their very lives, that more than others they have been torn by the pangs of inner discord. Let this be a consolation to him who also suffers from it. Without it, nothing enduring has ever been begotten. ERWIN SCHRODINGER What Is Life?

 

[Michael Clarke]

Marvelous.

Those who hear the silent suffering of voiceless masses, whose stomachs churn in solidarity with legion starving children, whose destiny seems marred by demons of despair, take heed... Make virtue your lamp unto the world, take strength from those who came before, and fear not, for the only death is idleness.

What we do in life echoes in Eternity...
What manner of ripple will you make?

(Thanks for that Hedgehog, you've lightened the day)
