Quote by Louis Macneice
It's no go my honey love, it's no go my poppet; Work your hands from day to day, the winds will blow the profit. The glass is falling hour by hour, the glass will fall for ever, But if you break the bloody glass you won't hold up the weather.
Summary
This quote implies that no matter how hard one works or tries, external forces beyond our control, represented by the winds and falling glass, will ultimately determine our outcomes. It suggests that breaking the "bloody glass" or attempting to challenge fate and manipulate outcomes will not change the inevitable. The quote emphasizes the futility of our efforts against the unalterable course of events and reminds us to accept the natural order of things.
