We were put on this earth to make things.
W.H. AudenTime will say nothing but I told you so,
Time only knows the price we have to pay;
If I could tell you I would let you know.
There are good books which are only for adults.
There are no good books which are only for children.
A person incapable of imaging another world than given to him by his senses would be subhuman, and a person who identifies his imaginary world with the world of sensory fact has become insane.

O stand, stand at the window
As the tears scald and start;
You shall love your crooked neighbour
With your crooked heart.

That the speech of self-disclosure should be translatable seems to me very odd, but I am convinced that it is. The conclusion that I draw is that the only quality which all human being without exception possess is uniqueness: any characteristic, on the other hand, which one individual can be recognized as having in common with another, like red hair or the English language, implies the existence of other individual qualities which this classification excludes.
W.H. AudenThank God for books as an alternative to conversation.
W.H. AudenHealing is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature.
W.H. AudenAll we are not stares back at what we are.

The desires of the heart are as crooked as corkscrews
Not to be born is the best for man
The second best is a formal order
The dance's pattern, dance while you can.
Dance, dance, for the figure is easy
The tune is catching and will not stop
Dance till the stars come down from the rafters
Dance, dance, dance till you drop.
