Any fool may write a most valuable book by chance, if he will only tell us what he heard and saw with veracity.
Thomas Gray Quotes
Nor second he, that rode sublime Upon the seraph-wings of ecstasy, The secrets of th’abyss to spy. He passed the flaming bounds of place and time: The living throne, the sapphire-blaze, Where angels tremble, while they gaze, He saw; but blasted with excess of light, Closed his eyes in endless night.
