ما من أحد على الإطلاق يتصور أنه شخصياً سوف يموت، ولكنه يتصور حدوث هذا المصير السيئ للآخرين. - Euripides

I have found power in the mysteries of thought, exaltation in the changing of the Muses; I have been versed in the reasonings of men; but Fate is stronger than anything I have known.

A coward turns away, but a brave man's choice is danger.

And men in their millions float and flow
And seethe with a million hopes as leaven;
And they win their Will, or they miss their Will,
And the hopes are dead or are pined for still;
But whoe'er can know,
As the long days go,
That To Live is happy, hath found his Heaven!
