Tratto da ” Four quartets” di Thomas S.Eliot
“I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
for hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love
for love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
but the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting …..
Wait without thought, for you are not ready for tought:
so the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
“io dissi alla mia anima:
stai quieta e attendi senza speranza perche’ la speranza
sarebbe speranza verso le cose sbagliate; attendi senza amore
perche’ l’amore sarebbe amore per le cose sbagliate, resta la fede
ma la fede e l’amore e la speranza
sono tutti nell’attendere
Attendi senza pensiero perche’ tu non sei pronto
per pensare: cosi’ la tenebra sara’ luce, e la quiete la danza.
