« are not my days few ?

cease then, and let me alone,

that i may take comfort a little,

before i go whence i shall not return »

(Job 10:20-21)





« we grope for the wall like the blind,

and we grope as if we had no eyes :

we stumble at noonday as in the night ;

we are in desolate places as dead men »

(Isaiah 59:10)





« i should have been 

as though i had not been ;

i should have been

carried from the womb to the grave »
