if this doesn’t say it…

By david On January 25th, 2008

we are the music-makers,
and we are the dreamers of dreams,
wandering by lone sea-breakers,
and sitting by desolate streams;
world-losers, and world-forsakers,
on whom the pale moon gleams:
yet we are the movers and shakers
of the world for ever, it seems.

    I feel like Gene Wilder quoted this in “Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”, but I could be wrong.

    Hi,

    I’m a friend of Val’s and am taking a break from painting, and followed the link from her blog to yours. Thanks for sharing the quote–I’m excited to get back to my easel.
