One of the sadder things, I think,
Is how our birthdays slowly sink:
Presents and parties disappear,
The cards grow fewer year by year,
Till, when one reaches sixty-five,
How many care we're still alive?More Philip Larkin quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

Spring, of all seasons most gratuitous,
Is fold of untaught flower, is race of water,
Is earth's most multiple, excited daughter;
And those she has least use for see her best,
Their paths grown craven and circuitous,
Their visions mountain-clear, their needs immodest.More Philip Larkin quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

You can look out of your life like a train & see what you're heading for, but you can't stop the train.More Philip Larkin quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

You can't put off being young until you retire.More Philip Larkin quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]
