“Begin, be bold, and venture to be wise.”

Horace (-65–-8 BC) Roman lyric poet

“Look with favor upon a bold beginning.”
Audacibus annue coeptis.

Virgil Georgics

Book I, line 40
Georgics (29 BC)

“I felt the beginning of a farewell rise in me like a sob. But there are too many of them for one to mourn them all.”

Henri Barbusse (1873–1935) French novelist

Light (1919), Ch. XV - An Apparition
Context: I felt the beginning of a farewell rise in me like a sob. But there are too many of them for one to mourn them all. How many of them are there on all this plain? How many, how many of them are there in all this moment? Our heart is only made for one heart at a time. It wears us out to look at all. One may say, "There are the others," but it is only a saying. "You shall not know; you shall not know."
