Throw no gyft agayne at the geuers head,
For better is halfe a lofe than no bread.

Throw no gift again at the giver's head, For better is half a loaf than no bread.

O wondrous gift indeed!
The poor and lowly may
Upon their Lord and Master feed.

I drive from home to my office, a small apartment on the river in the center of Dublin. I write there from 9 a.m. to lunchtime, I take a simple lunch—bread, cheese, nice cup of tea—work until 6 p.m., then home for dinner. Viewed from outside my head it is a singularly dull and uneventful day, but inside my head … aaah.

 
John Banville
 

Life is halfe spent before we know what it is.
