"Paracelsus At times I almost dream I too have spent a life the sagesâ€™ way, And tread once more familiar paths. Perchance I perished in an arrogant self-reliance Ages ago; and in that act a prayer For one more chance went up so earnest, so Instinct with better light let in by death, That life was blotted out â€” not so completely But scattered wrecks enough of it remain, Dim memories, as now, when once more seems The goal in sight again."

-- Robert Browning

To me it doesn't seem so.”

And now theyâ€™ve gotten rid of me and it will pass. You connect the dots.”
