"Every morning, so far, I’m alive. And now
the crows break off from the rest of the darkness
and burst up into the sky—as though all night they had thought of what they would like
their lives to be, and imagined
their strong, thick wings."
- Mary Oliver | Landscape (via thebiglonely)

"Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth."
