“The eager fate which carried thee
Took the largest part of me:
For this losing is true dying;
This is lordly man’s down-lying,
This his slow but sure reclining,
Star by star his world resigning.”

“My generation of the Sixties, with all our great ideals, destroyed liberalism, because of our excesses.”
