Quotes for Quenching – 6

“Dear friend, theory is all grey, And the golden tree of life is green.”

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust Pt.1

I have come to realize that until we do,
There is no color in me or you –
And before the dawn
Gold is just a dream’s sand,
speckled all across the beaches
In small amounts that can barely be seen

The real beauty is in growth’s green leaves,
Touched by the light;
What is created allows everything to breathe
