“There was something left that was more than the tales
Of old men on winter evenings.”
Choruses from The Rock (1934)
Context: In spite of all the dishonour,
the broken standards, the broken lives,
The broken faith in one place or another,
There was something left that was more than the tales
Of old men on winter evenings.
“It's better to have loved and lost than do forty pounds of laundry a week.”
