"Remember, we are all in this alone." - Lilly Tomlin
So true! And the catch is we never seem to catch up.Originally Posted by hack
I do not know
if this is a poem
but you wished to share
your happy phrase!
And you know it is.
Thanks!
So brief and yet with such meaning! Excellent!
Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
Thanx-I know
"Remember, we are all in this alone." - Lilly Tomlin
It is not a poem unless you chose that it is, I have no preference.
You are in Lisbon? I wish I could be there, Fernando Pessoa and Jose Saramago have told me much about your city, but I must see it for myself one day.
Welcome my friend,
Hack

"Thanx, I know", you answered Pendragon, with such a "British" tone and wink.
I could quote Pessoa endlessly, this for example (de Campos if I am not mistaken)
"And my ambition would be to carry the universe in my arms
Like a child being kissed by its nurse."
I find him to be one of the most fascinating poets ever (though he somewhere claimed he was not a poet and the merit was in his lines, independent of his will...) and - he loved Yeats!
Lisboa is, for one who "knows", full of Fernando Pessoa...
Oh! and I see, you quote Szymborska! I had the pleasure of meeting her once in Paris, she is an ageless lovely lady of immense culture and -- modesty! And where are you? (I am still learning about this site's labyrinths)
