Where My Books Go

141

All the words that I utter, And all the words that I write,

Must spread out their wings untiring,

And never rest in their flight,

Till they come where your sad, sad heart is,

And sing to you in the night,

Beyond where the waters are moving,

Storm-darkened or starry bright.

~ W. B. Yeats

To Determine Intimacy

91

It’s not time or opportunity that determines intimacy; it’s disposition alone. 7 years would be insufficient to make some people acquainted with each other, & 7 days are more than enough for others.

The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan

The leaf lives its appointed time, and does not struggle against the wind that carries it away. The leaf does no harm, and finally falls to nourish new leaves. So it should be with all men and women.
