“Bare night is best. Bare earth is best. Bare, bare,
Except for our own houses, huddled low
Beneath the arches and their spangled air,
Beneath the rhapsodies of fire and fire,
Where the voice that is in us makes a true response....”

“It is sometimes a point of as much cleverness to know to make good use of advice from others as to be able give good advice to oneself.”
