The people had done it themselves ... — Rachel Carson

He's retired, he's just turned sixty, you know. And on the actual day of his retirement it turned out he wasn't a radiologist at heart at all, he didn't want to spend another day of his life on medicine.

There Will Come Soft Rains
There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;
And frogs in the pool singing at night,
And wild plum-trees in tremulous white;
Robins will wear their feathery fire

Which children pick to fill the room,
Today is the day when grasses green,
When leaves burst forth for spring to be seen. — Robert McCracken
