well-built barriers . are very rarely broken . in a single try
pragmatism dies . in the first warm days of spring . unless there’s wisdom
the smallest detail . can have outsized influence . without us knowing
some advice given applies universally in all areas
each generation . loses parts of history . so must repeat it
opposing forces create their final textures as the daylight fades
past experience informs possible futures we can prepare for
all of history can be written in the things we have forgotten
that which cannot wait will still be there tomorrow and still be waiting
no one is self-made as long as there are structures we all rely on
