Never Quotes (page 630)
We never said farewell, not even looked. Our last upon each other, for no sign. Was made when we the linked chain unhooked. And broke the level line. And here we dwell together, side by side, Our places fixed for life upon the chart, Two islands that the roaring seas divide. Are not more far apart.
Mary Elizabeth Coleridge

When we are young, we spend much time and pains in filling our note-books with all definitions of Religion, Love, Poetry, Politics, Art, in the hope that, in the course of a few years, we shall have condensed into our encyclopaedia the net value of all the theories at which the world has yet arrived.
