T. S. Eliot
The nightingales are singing near The Convent of the Sacred Heart, And sang within the bloody wood When Agamemnon cried aloud, And let their liquid siftings fall To stain the stiff dishonored shroud.
T. S. Eliot
To make an end is to make a beginning.
T. S. Eliot
Any religion is forever in danger of petrifaction into mere ritual and habit, though ritual and habit be essential to religion.
T. S. Eliot
Talent imitates, genius steals.
T. S. Eliot
We must learn to suffer more.
T. S. Eliot
I had seen birth and death but had thought they were different.
T. S. Eliot
You have to risk going too far to discover just how far you can really go.
