Let the past be content with itself, for man needs forgetfulness as well as memory
Curiosity will conquer fear even more than bravery will.
The duty of a lyrical poet is not to express or explain, it is to intensify life.
Because our lives are cowardly and sly,
Because we do not dare to take or give,
Because we scowl and pass each other by,
We do not live; we do not dare to live.
