The dateless mid-days of the law
And seen indifferent justice done
By everyone on everyone.”

So mastered by the brute blood of the air,
Did she put on his knowledge with his power
Before the indifferent beak could let her drop?”

“There is no human failure greater than to launch a profoundly important endeavour and then leave it half done. This is what the West has done with its colonial system.

—Barbara Ward (1914–1981)
