Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5
Beautiful and reminds me of the words from John Keats poem 'Ode on a Grecian Urn. "Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all. Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.".
Very True!

Oh how true. Wish we saw more of it today.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Patti. We so need more truth in this country.
ReplyDeleteWe also agree! Sadly, it's getting to be a thing of the past.
ReplyDeleteAmen and Amen!
ReplyDeleteThere are times when the truth can be harsh and hurtful.
ReplyDeleteI agree with River, but in the greater sense, truth will always be better than the big lie, obfuscation, and treachery. Nuff said.
