Anne McCaffrey: Citations en anglais

“Don't leave me alone!
A cry in the night,
Of anguish heart-stiking,
Of soul-killing fright.

Live for my living
Or else I must die
Don't leave me alone.
A world heard that cry.”

Though the tune was written as gay.

And your eye meeting mine turns away.”

Not for lust or petty greed
Honor those that do give birth
