“What I come to do is partial, partially kept.”
If you never do anything for anyone else you are spared the tragedy of human relation-
ships.
“But in them I had been, at first, tongue. If they speak, I have myself, and love them.”
“the fashion of a stone
underground.”
“ a leaf or a contrivance of wires, in the stairwell, to be looked at from below.”
” … the rest is silence.”
“… but how language thinks to say it, what it thus makes of its own mind and feeling, is to me forever provocative.”
