Love and Death move through this world of ours like things apart, underrunning it truly, and everywhere present, yet seeming to belong to some other mode of existence.
When Death comes, breaking into the circle of our friends, words fail us.
Our mental machinery ceases to operate all our little stores of wit and wisdom, our maxims, our mottoes, accumulated from daily experience, evaporate and are of no avail.
These things do not seem to touch or illuminate in any effective way the strange vast Presence whose wings darken the world for us. And with Love, though in an opposite sense, it is the same.
Words are of no use, all our philosophy fails-whether to account for the pain, or to fortify against the glamour, or to describe the glory of the experience.
Edward Carpenter was an English socialist poet, philosopher, and anthologist.
As a philosopher he was particularly known for his publication of Civilisation, Its Cause and Cure in which he proposes that civilisation is a form of disease that human societies pass through.
He had an influence on both D. H. Lawrence and Sri Aurobindo, and inspired E. M. Forster's novel Maurice.
