Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer, Things fall apart; the center cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the worldW. B. Yeats Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Robert FrostFor I have known them all already, known them all-Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons, I have measured out my life with coffee spoonsT. S. Eliot what if a much of a which of a wind gives the truth to summer's lie; bloodies with dizzying leaves the sun and yanks immortal stars awry? E. E. CummingsStop all the clocks, cut off the telephone, Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone, Silence the pianos and with muffled drum Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.W. H. Auden
