“A poet is a blind optimist. The world is against him for many reasons. But the poet persists. He believes that he is on the right track, no matter what any of his fellow men say. In his eternal search for truth, the poet is alone. He tries to be timeless in a society built on time.”

― Jack Kerouac, Atop an Underwood: Early Stories and Other Writings

“Come away, O human child!

To the waters and the wild

With a faery, hand in hand,

For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.”

William Butler Yeats, The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats.
