The world rolls...

Vendor: WRITERS I-Z

The world rolls round forever like a mill;
I It grinds out death and life and good and ill;
It has no purpose, heart or mind or will.

-- James Thomson, (Nov 23 1834-1882), Scottish poet, essayist; He was best known for The City of Dreadful Night, about his despair of political affairs.
