It is stern work – Dipping Into Light

"It is stern work, it is perilous work, to thrust your hand in the sun, and pull out a spark of immortal flame to warm the hearts of men. But Prometheus, torn by the claws and beaks whose task is never done, would be tortured another eternity to go stealing fire again."

— Joyce Kilmer, American soldier and poet, died July 30, 1918
