Quote by Brian Krans

“We stay busy so we don't have to admit we don't have all the answers. After long enough with our constant distractions, we end our search for them. And God. Soon enough, we'll all come to realize we can't be God. We'll settle for telling ourselves we can. Or we'll just make one up.”

To be a poet is to desire and, at the same time, to obtain, in the exact shape of the desire.”
