Sleep is not, death is not
Who seem to die live.
House you were born in, friends of your spring-time
Old man and young maid, day's toil and it's guerdon.
They are all vanishing
Fleeing to fables
Cannot be moored.
Illusions, by Ralph Waldo Emerson; also quoted in the epigraph of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs.
