“Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring,

Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish…

What good amid these, O me, O life?

Answer.

That you are here—that life exists and identity,

That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.”

What will your verse be?

Walt Whitman – Leaves of Grass (1892)

PS – In loving memory of Robin Williams. A sensitive, solitary, joyful soul. Gone today, but not forgotten.
