So mastered by the brute blood of the air,

Before the indifferent beak could let her drop?”

Seem all of paradise that we shall know?

A part of labor and a part of pain,
And next in glory to enduring love,
Not this dividing and indifferent blue.”

“Give up the feeling of responsibility, let go your hold, resign the care of your destiny to higher powers, be genuinely indifferent as to what becomes of it all and you will find not only that you gain a perfect inward relief, but often also, in addition, the particular goods you sincerely thought you were renouncing.”
—William James (1842–1910)
