"Of Chess it has been said that life is not long enough for it..."
"But that is the fault of life, not Chess"

Chess lasts forever.
ReplyDeleteWe are mere mortals though on a "darkling plain."
The monuments of life, including chess, outlast us all.
It is the moment of passion, fierce passion, which defines a life.
How you played the game......
Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night.
Matthew Arnold
OR
They are not long, the days of wine and roses:
Out of a misty dream
Our path emerges for a while, then closes
Within a dream."
Ernest Dowson

Let's simply have another drink, here at Harry Hope's.... Or have I the wrong bar?
But how beautiful the moon is tonight! How promising in its fold of mystery! Its silver breath quiet on the street. There is much to marvel at!
