“They constantly try to escape
From the darkness outside and within
By dreaming of systems so perfect that no one will need to be good.”

T.S. Eliot (1888–1965) 20th century English author

Choruses from The Rock (1934)
Context: They constantly try to escape
From the darkness outside and within
By dreaming of systems so perfect that no one will need to be good.
But the man that is shall shadow
The man that pretends to be.
