falter quotes

  • Thou waitest for the spark from heaven! and we, Light half-believers in our casual creeds† Who hesitate and falter life away, And lose tomorrow the ground won today Ah, do not we,Wanderer, await it too?

    - Matthew Arnold
      Poems:  A New Edition,'The Scholar-Gipsy', l.171^4.
