T. S. Eliot
Sometimes things become possible if we want them bad enough.
T. S. Eliot
Human kind cannot bear much reality.
T. S. Eliot
It will do you no harm to find yourself ridiculous. Resign yourself to be the fool you are... ...We must always take risks. That is our destiny.
T. S. Eliot

When comparing works of art, it is important that the art itself, and not the artists, be considered.
T. S. Eliot
The Nobel is a ticket to one's own funeral. No one has ever done anything after he got it.
T. S. Eliot
As a rule, with me an unfinished [idea] is a thing that might as well be rubbed out. It's better, if there's something good in it that I might make use of elsewhere, to leave it at the back of my mind than on paper in a drawer. If I leave it in a drawer it remains the same thing but if it's in the memory it becomes transformed into something else.
T. S. Eliot

T. S. Eliot
We are not here to triumph by fighting, by strata gem, or by resistance, not to fight with beasts as men. We have fought the beast and have conquered. We have only to conquer now, by suffering. This is the easier victory.
T. S. Eliot
Weave, weave the sunlight in your hair-
T. S. Eliot
The communication of the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living.
T. S. Eliot
We have lingered in the chambers of the sea By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown Till human voices wake us... and we drown.
T. S. Eliot
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. I do not think that they will sing to me.
T. S. Eliot
All our knowledge brings us nearer to our ignorance.
T. S. Eliot
