If you had swum across the furthest oceanAnd seen the vastness of infinityThough dread of death might seize you, you'd still seeThe rolling waves in never-ceasing motionYou'd still see something: Schools of dolphins swimmingAcross the green and placid waters, skimmingThe clouds, the sun and the moon, stars overhead -You will see nothing in that void all roundYou will not hear your footsteps where you treadBeneath your feet, you'll feel no solid ground
-Goethe
