Quotes About Balsam

Death is like the insect Menacing the tree, Competent to kill it, But decoyed may be. Bait it with the balsam, Seek it with the knife, Baffle, if it cost you Everything in life. Then, if it have burrowed Out of reach of skill, Ring the tree and leave it, — 'Tis the vermin's will.
~ Emily Dickinson
La lectura de Momentos estelares de la humanidad es para el hombre de hoy un bálsamo y un impulso, que tienen como fin liberarnos de lo anodino, del conformismo de una civilización que ya solo es capaz de encontrar lo extraordinario en el deporte o en la virtualidad de "la red".
~ Stefan Zweig
Out of your poisons you brewed your balsam. You milked your cow, melancholy; now you drink the sweet milk of her udder.
~ Nietzsche
As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move quickly, because this will mean that the LORD has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”
~ 2 Samuel 5:24
