Grow old with me! The best is yet to be.
Like dogs in a wheel, birds in a cage, or squirrels in a chain, ambitious men still climb and climb, with great labor, and incessant anxiety, but never reach the top.
White shall not neutralize the black, nor good compensate bad in man, absolve him so: life's business being just the terrible choice.
A face to lose youth for, to occupy age With the dream of, meet death with.
A minute's success pays the failure of years.
Love, hope, fear, faith - these make humanity These are its sign and note and character.
Love, hope, fear, faith - these make humanity These are its sign and note and character.
Love, hope, fear, faith - these make humanity These are its sign and note and character.
Take away love and our earth is a tomb.
So, fall asleep love, loved by me... for I know love, I am loved by thee.
