"Wanderers eastward, wanderers west, Know you why you……" — A. E. Housman

"Wanderers eastward, wanderers west, Know you why you cannot rest? 'Tis that every mother's son Travails with a skeleton. Lie down in the bed of dust; Bear the fruit that bear you must; Bring the eternal seed to light, And morn is all the same as night."

A. E. Housman
