Quite a lot of our contemporary culture is actually shot through with a resentment of limits and the passage of time, anger at what we cant do, fear or even disgust at growing old. – Rowan Williams
Anger may be kindled in the noblest breasts: but in these slow droppings of an unforgiving temper never takes the shape of consistency of enduring hatred. – M. Kathleen Casey
Poetry fettered, fetters the human race. Nations are destroyed or flourish in proportion as their poetry, painting, and music are destroyed or flourish. – William Blake
