“ Behold, we know not anything; I can but trust that good shall fall at last - far off - at last, to all, and every winter change to spring. “

-Alfred Lord Tennyson-

Behold, we know not anything; I can but trust that good shall fall at last - far off - at last, to all, and every winter change to spring.

Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.

O love, O fire! once he drewWith one long kiss my whole soul throughMy lips, as sunlight drinketh dew.

The shell must break before the bird can fly.

Come friends, it's not too late to seek a newer world.

HopeSmiles from the threshold of the year to come,Whispering 'it will be happier'...

Tis better to have loved and lostThan never to have loved at all.

Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go; Ring out the false, ring in the true.

Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering 'it will be happier.'
