Perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave.

It is good to be solitary, for solitude is difficult; that something is difficult must be a reason the more for us to do it.

To all that is used-up, and to all the muffled and dumb creatures in the world's full reserve, the unsayable sums, joyfully add yourself, and cancel the count.

No great art has ever been made without the artist having known danger.

and I circle ten thousand years long; And I still don't know if I'm a falcon, a storm, or an unfinished song

Understand, I'll slip quietly away from the noisy crowd when I see the pale stars rising, blooming, over the oaks. I'll pursue solitary pathways through the pale twilit meadows with only this one dream: You come too.

You darkness, that I come from, I love you more than all the fires that fence in the world.
