The sense of the world is short, - <br />Long and various the report, - <br />To love and be beloved; <br />Men and gods have not outlearned it; <br />And, how oft soe'er they've turned it, <br />'Tis not to be improved.<br /><br />Ralph Waldo Emerson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/eros/
