The Sea Drives Truth Into A Man

For No One, In Our Long Decline, So Dusty, Spiteful And Divided, Had Quite Such Pleasant Friends As Mine, Or Loved Them Half As Much As I Did.

Loss And Possession, Death And Life Are One, There Falls No Shadow Where There Shines No Sun.

When Friendship Disappears Then There Is A Space Left Open To That Awful Loneliness Of The Outside World Which Is Like The Cold Space Between The Planets. It Is An Air In Which Men Perish Utterly.

The Smaller Man Approaching Our Modern Banking System, Which Controls All Issue Of Credit And Therefore Pretty Well All Our Industrial And Commercial Activities, Is Not What The Controllers Of That Credit Call "interesting." He Borrows With Difficulty And Upon High Terms, And Must Pledge Security Out Of All Proportion To That Which His Richer Rival Has To Put Down.

Oh, You Should Never, Never Doubt What Nobody Is Sure About.
