Additional quotes by W. H. Auden

Soft as the earth is mankind and both need to be altered.

A daydream is a meal at which images are eaten. Some of us are gourmets, some gourmands, and a good many take their images precooked out of a can and swallow them down whole, absent-mindedly and with little relish.

O stand, stand at the window
As the tears scald and start;
You shall love your crooked neighbour
With your crooked heart.

She survived whatever happened; she forgave; she became. - W. H. Auden
