Summary

This quote suggests that while there is still potential for agreement and resolution when people work together (symbolized by joined hands), there is no room for progress or positivity when individuals are in conflict or tightly closed off (symbolized by the clenched fist). It implies that unity and cooperation have the ability to foster hope and create positive outcomes, while division and hostility only lead to further despair and lack of progress.

Stop this day and night with me and you shall possess the origin of all poems, You shall possess the good of the earth and sun, (there are millions of suns left,) You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, nor look through the eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books, You shall not look through my eyes either, nor take things from me, You shall listen to all sides and filter them from your self.
