"Life moves out of a red flare..." - Quote by William Butler Yeats

“It seems that I must bid the Muse to pack, / Choose Plato and Plotinus for a friend / Until imagination, ear and eye, / Can be content with argument and deal / In abstract things; or be derided by / A sort of battered kettle at the heel.”

“My temptation is quiet. Here at life's end Neither loose imagination Nor the mill of the mind Consuming its rag and bone, Can make the truth known.”

“Though leaves are many, the root is one.”

“When you are fully conscious, drama does not come into your life anymore.”

“Before a leaf-bud has burst, its whole life acts; in the full-blown flower there is no more; in the leafless root there is no less.”

“If one were to live his life fully and completely were to give form to every feeling, expression to every thought, reality to every dream.”

“Our life runs down in sending up the clock.The brook runs down in sending up our life.The sun runs down in sending up the brook.And there is something sending up the sun.”

“All motion in this universe is in the form of waves, successively rising and falling.”

“What potent blood hath modest May.”
