Wikiquote:Quote of the day/March 19, 2012

From Wikiquote

How shall the Shown pretend to ken aught of the Showman or the Show?
Why meanly bargain to believe, which only means thou ne'er canst know?
How may the passing Now contain the standing Now — Eternity? —
An endless is without a was, the be and never the to-be?

~ Sir Richard Francis Burton ~
