Citação Exaltada

In youth I have known one with whom the Earth
In secret communing held -- as he with it,
In daylight, and in beauty from his birth :
Whose fervid, flickering torch of life was lit
From the sun and the stars, whence he had drawn forth
A passionate light -- such for his spirit was fit --
And yet that spirit knew not, in the hour
Of its own fervour, what had o'er it power.
    --- Stanzas, Edgar Allan Poe.

Eu não vou nem explicar essa daí. Ela fala por si mesma, para quem tem o conhecimento apropriado.
