Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold

Published:

"Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;

Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,

The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere

The ceremony of innocence is drowned;

The best lack all conviction, while the worst

Are full of passionate intensity."

~W.B. Yeats

I think it better that in times like these a poet's mouth be silent, for in truth we have no gift to set a statesman right.
~William Butler Yeats
