  Yet I, too, must each dusk renew my heart,
  For daytime's vulture talons tear apart
  The tender alcoves built by love at night.

  Life, Heart, Night

• One thing is sure, O comrades, that the love
  That fights to keep us rooted in the earth,
  But also urges us to dare the stars,
  This irresistible, this ancient power
  Wedged in the soul, unshakable, is the light
  That burns our roots and leaves us free for Space.

• The way is open, comrades, free as Space
  Alone is free. The only gold is love,
  A coin that we have minted from the light
  Of others who have cared for us on Earth
  And who have deposited in us the power
  That nerves our nerves to seize the burning stars.

  Philip Jose Farmer

  Life, Stars, Light

• Yes, we hope to seed a new, rich earth.
  We hope to breed a race of men whose power
  Dwells in hearts as open as all Space
  Itself, who ask for nothing but the light
  That rinses the heart of hate so that the stars
  Above will be below when man has Love.
