Don MarquisThe things that I can't have I want, And what I have seems second-rate, The things I want to do I can't, And what I have to do I hate.
Don MarquisFor all of the creeds are false, and all of the creeds are true; And low at the shrines where my brothers bow, there will I bow too; For no form of a god, and no fashion Man has made in his desperate passion, But is worthy some worship of mine; Not too hot with a gross belief, Nor yet too cold with pride, I will bow me down where my brothers bow, Humble, but open eyed.
Don Marquis
