18+ steinarb , 2 months ago @pluralistic I had heard that title many years ago. I had the feeling it was from a short story in a science fiction collection...? So I googled and found this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Till_Human_Voices_Wake_Us Could have been either the Lisa Tuttle story (it's from 1973, I think...?) or the Lewis Shiner story...? The wikipedia article also had the origin of the phrase: T.S. Eliot
