All generalizations are false, including this one.

Ain’t no dark ’till something shines

It’s legs to walk and thoughts to fly
Eyes to laugh and lips to cry
A restless tongue to classify
All born to grow and grown to die
– “Rex’s Blues”, Townes Van Zandt

In which the world gets its rain

Small Change got rained on
With his own .38
And nobody flinched down by the arcade…
– Tom Waits “Small Change”
