Carl Sandburg Quote
I
want to do the right thing, but often I don't know just what the right
thing is. Every day I know I have come short of what I would like to
have done. Yet as the years pass and I see the very world itself, with
its oceans and mountains and plains, as something unfinished, a peculiar
little satisfaction hunts out the corners of my heart. Sunsets and
evening shadows find me regretful at task's undone, but sleep and the
dawn and the air of the morning touch me with freshening hopes. Strange
things blow in through my window on the wings of the night wind and I
don't worry about my destiny. — Carl Sandburg
