Stuff and Nonsense

[ladysprite]

Because every once in a while it's kind of fun to do one of these silly things, and this one looked kind of entertaining, and because while I'm doing okay at the moment I'm too tired to be witty on my own....

23. Always like to see what quote resonates with a person

[ladysprite.livejournal.com]

"We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams; -
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world forever, it seems.'
Arthur O'Shaughnessy, "Ode"

... thank you. I honestly had no idea that the full quote even existed, and the first two lines are among *my* favorite quotes to live by. (From Willy Wonka -- one of the few custom buttons I've ever commissioned.)

That's not the full quote; that's the first verse. :) The whole thing is nine verses, and just keeps getting more gorgeous....

Elegant and powerful poetry, and spells out the idea much more deeply than I had realized -- this definitely goes onto my favorites list, and is going to occasion much reflection. Thanks much...
