EDWARD FITZGERALD
English poet and translator
(1809 - 1883)

For like a child, sent with a fluttering light
  To feel his way along a gusty night,
    Man walks the world. Again, and yet again,
      The lamp shall be by fits of passion slain;
        But shall not He who sent him from the door
          Relight the lamp once more, and yet once more?
      - translation of Attar's "Mantik-ut-Tair", (Bird Parliament)
        [Life]

Taste is the feminine of genius.
      - [Taste]

The King in a carriage may ride,
  And the Beggar may crawl at his side;
    But in the general race,
      They are traveling all the same pace.
      - Chrononoros [Life]
