For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

“Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to see, to find...”
- Alfred Lord #Tennyson d: 6 October 1892

"I chatter, chatter, as I flow
To join the brimming river,
For men may come and men may go,
But I go on forever."
