"In a dark time, the eye begins to see." --Roethke again.
"Look and you will find it--what is unsought will go undetected." --Sophocles
The juxtaposition of those two reminds of a quote from a movie I saw in college whose name I can't remember, and it was in translation anyway, but the quote was, "Yes, we are like a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat that isn't there, but we, we will find the cat!"
