T. S. Eliot Quotes

Should I, After Tea And Cakes And Ices,
Have The Strength To Force The Moment To Its Crisis?
But Though I Have Wept And Fasted, Wept And Prayed,
Though I Have Seen My Head (grown Slightly Bald) Brought In Upon A Platter,
I Am No Prophet
and Here's No Great Matter;
I Have Seen The Moment Of My Greatness Flicker,
I Have Seen The Eternal Footman Hold My Coat, And Snicker,
And In Short, I Was Afraid.
