want to be myself unconditionally.”
“Love is enough: it grew up without heeding
In the days when ye knew not its name nor its measure”
Love is Enough (1872), Song III: It Grew Up Without Heeding
Context: Love is enough: it grew up without heeding
In the days when ye knew not its name nor its measure,
And its leaflets untrodden by the light feet of pleasure
Had no boast of the blossom, no sign of the seeding,
As the morning and evening passed over its treasure.
“Any lie has a condemnation: its duration. Time, sooner or later, will manifest the truth.”
Original: Qualsiasi bugia ha una condanna: la sua durata. Il tempo, prima o poi, manifesterà la verità.
