Gentle, pulsing cries-- Mankind's sanctuary speaks Of a better view. Hands beneath the moon, Let our breath become the songs, Ancient and yet new

&ldquo;When it&#039;s over, I want to say: all my life<br /> I was a bride married to amazement.<br /> I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. <br /> <br /> When it is over, I don&#039;t want to wonder<br /> if I have made of my life something particular, and real.<br /> I don&#039;t want to find myself sighing and frightened,<br /> or full of argument. <br /> <br /> I don&#039;t want to end up simply having visited this world.&rdquo;

&quot;If you can&#039;t understand my silence, then you don&#039;t deserve my words.&quot;<br /> &quot;Love is like the wind, you can&#039;t always see it, but you can feel it.&quot;<br /> &quot;Sometimes all you need is ten seconds of insane courage.&quot;
