from "Ulysses"

I came across the quote "To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield," long ago. So happy I turned up the rest of this piece. Moving, stirring, wonderful. Enjoy it.
 
 
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
 
(Tennyson)
