I want to do the right thing, but often I dont know just what the right thing is. Every day I know I have come short of what I would like to have done. Yet as the years pass and I see the very world itself, with its oceans and mountains and plains, as something unfinished, a peculiar little satisfaction hunts out the corners of my heart. Sunsets and evening shadows find me regretful at tasks undone, but sleep and the dawn and the air of the morning touch me with freshening hopes. Strange things blow in through my window on the wings of the night wind and I dont worry about my destiny. Carl August Sandburg		Friday Sep 12, 2025

Popular Benjamin Britten Quotes
Francis Poulenc commenting on the music of Benjamin Britten: The model of a composer. Composing is like driving down a foggy road toward a house. Slowly you see more details of the housethe color of the slates and bricks, the shape of the windows. The notes are the bricks and mortar of the house.
