No matter what you got, the blues is there
But there have been human hearts, constituted just like ours, for six thousand years. The same stars rise and set upon this globe that rose upon the plains of Shinar or along the Egyptian Nile and the same sorrows rise and set in every age.
Everyone is in pain.No matter where they come from or what you think of them. Sorrow spares no one
They say my verse is sad: no wonder; Its narrow measure spans Tears of eternity, and sorrow, Not mine. but man's.
It isn't enough for your heart to break because everybody's heart is broken now.
Deep down in everyone was sorrow and certainty.
Sorrow makes us all children again - destroys all differences of intellect. The wisest know nothing.
There I lay staring upward, while the stars wheeled over... Faint to my ears came the gathered rumor of all lands: the springing and the dying, the song and the weeping, and the slow everlasting groan of overburdened stone.
