Summer Heart Sun

More From Edgar Allan Poe

I know i am but summer to your heart, and not the full four seasons of the year; and you must welcome from another part such noble moods as are not mine, my dear. no gracious weight of golden fruits to sell have i, nor any wise and wintry thing; and i have loved you all too long and well to carry still the high sweet breast of spring. wherefore i say: o love, as summer goes, i must be gone, steal forth with silent drums, that you may hail anew the bird and rose when i come back to you, as summer comes. else will you seek, at some not distant time, even your summer in another clime.

The sound of distant breakers made her heart ache with melancholy. she was in the mood when the sea has a saddening effect upon the nerves. it is only when we are very happy that we can bear to gaze merrily upon the vast and limitless expanse of water, rolling on and on with such persistent, irritating monotony to the accompaniment of our thoughts, whether grave or gay. when they are gay, the waves echo their gaiety; but when they are sad, then every breaker, as it rolls, seems to bring additional sadness and to speak to us of hopelessness and of the pettiness of all our joys.

And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.
Christian Hope Night
A philosopher once asked, "are we human because we gaze at the stars, or do we gaze at them because we are human?" pointless, really..."do the stars gaze back?" now that's a question.

During the shooting of a scene the director’s eye has to catch even the minutest detail. but this does not mean glaring concentratedly at the set. while the cameras are rolling, i rarely look directly at the actors, but focus my gaze somewhere else. by doing this i sense instantly when something isn’t right. watching something does not mean fixing your gaze on it, but being aware of it in a natural way. i believe this is what the medieval noh playwright and theorist zeami meant by ‘watching with a detached gaze.’

When a man is in god's grace and free from mortal sin, then everything that he does, so long as there is no sin in it, gives god glory and what does not give him glory has some, however little, sin in it. it is not only prayer that gives god glory but work. smiting on an anvil, sawing a beam, whitewashing a wall, driving horses, sweeping, scouring, everything gives god some glory if being in his grace you do it as your duty.
