That so much time was wasted in this pain.
Christ, Old Student in a New School (1972)
Kontext: That so much time was wasted in this pain.
Ten thousand years ago he might have let off down
To not return again!
A dreadful laugh at last escapes his lips;
The laughter sets him free.
A Fool lives in the Universe! he cries.
The Fool is me!
And with one final shake of laughter
Breaks his bonds.
The nails fall skittering to marble floors.
And Christ, knelt at the rail, sees miracle
As Man steps down in amiable wisdom
To give himself what no one else can give:
His liberty.
„Čas, který promarníte a nevadí vám, že ho promarníte, není promarněný čas.“
„Nejvíc času promarníme tím, že usilujeme, jak získat čas.“
„Miluješ život? Pak nepromarni čas, protože z toho se skládá život.“
