We are the music-makers, And we are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams. World-losers and world-forsakers, Upon whom the pale moon gleams; Yet we are the movers and shakers, Of the world forever, it seems. — Arthur O'Shaughnessy

A breath of our inspiration
Is the life of each generation;
A wondrous thing of our dreaming
Unearthly, impossible seeming —

Are working together in one,
Till our dream shall become their present,
And their work in the world be done. — Arthur O'Shaughnessy
We, in the ages lying
In the buried past of the earth,
Built Nineveh with our sighing,
And Babel itself with our mirth;
And o'erthrew them with prophesying
To the old of the new world's worth;
For each age is a dream that is dying,
Or one that is coming to birth. — Arthur O'Shaughnessy
O precious is the pause between the winds that come and go, / And sweet the silence of the shores between the ebb and flow. — Arthur O'Shaughnessy
A breath of our inspiration / Is the life of each generation. — Arthur O'Shaughnessy
But on one man's soul it hath broken, / A light that doth not depart; / And his look, or a word he hath spoken, / Wrought flame in another man's heart. — Arthur O'Shaughnessy
For each age is a dream that is dying,
Or one that is coming to birth. — Arthur O'Shaughnessy
