Halldor Laxness Quotes

The Farm Brook Ran Down From The Mountain In A Straight Line For The Fold Then Swerved To The West To Go Its Way Down Into The Marshes. There Were Two Knee-high Falls In It And Two Pools, Knee-deep. At The Bottom There Was Shingle, Pebbles And Sand. It Ran In Many Curves. Each Curve Had Its Own Tone, But Not One Of Them Was Dull; The Brook Was Merry And Music-loving, Like Youth, But Yet With Various Strings, And It Played Its Music Without Thought Of Any Audience And Did Not Care Though No One Heard For A Hundred Years, Like The True Poet.
