I may,
if I can,
sleep; since I must,
die.
Some say,
rise.

More quotes by Josephine Jacobsen

The ancient usual retreat
Takes down the steps the scattering horde;
Adam again has met defeat,
Has missed connections with the Lord. But where the altar-candles die
Waits God, and in a corner prays
The last of heroes who will try
The Gate again in seven days.
