I'm looking for a short poem or saying to go on my binder cover. It can be well known or made up by you but please tell the author. Any type of poem or saying is fine as long as it's fairly short. Can you tell me why it inspires you if it does?
Thank you for your time!

Isn't it strange that princes and kings
And clowns that caper in sawdust rings
And ordinary folk like you and me
Are all builders of eternity.
To each is given a bag of tools,
An hourglass and a book of rules
And each must build, ere his time has flown
A stumbling block or as stepping stone
Never been able to find the author, always just known as "Anon", but I do like the poem

The late Venice (CA) Beat poet John Thomas had a line that kicked around my suggestions for actually years. I undergo in suggestions it with the enthusiasm of a plagiarist, yet sadly, might desire to certainly no longer appropriate it in terms of outrageousness, of originality and in basic terms undeniable over the topness. here it is going -- "Even now, the pornographers collect in the crematorium." i'm unsure what poem that's from as I wrote it down from listening to him examine it at a interpreting.

This has been my favorite poem since I was 12 years old...
Nothing Gold Can Stay
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
-- Robert Frost

there is a saying I love to say, I heard it from The Italian Job movie ( the new one ) :
Its not that I don't trust people, its the devil inside them I don't trust.

How does "Those who dare not, do not" sound to you?
If you are afraid to be good or to stand out, you never will.
