Quote of the Day (Stanley Kunitz, on a ‘Murderous Time’)

“In a murderous time

   the heart breaks and breaks

      and lives by breaking.

It is necessary to go

   through dark and deeper dark

      and not to turn.”—American poet Stanley Kunitz (1905-2006), “The Testing-Tree,” in The Testing Tree (1971)

Remembering 9/11…lest we forget.
