Josephine Jacobsen quotes

I may, if I can, sleep; since I must, die. Some say, rise. (Josephine Jacobsen)
The ancient usual retreat Takes down the steps the scattering horde; Adam again has met defeat, Has missed connections with the Lord. But where the altar-candles die Waits God, and in a corner prays The last of heroes who will try The Gate again in seven days. View quote
