Be thou the rainbow in the storms of life. The evening beam that smiles the clouds away, and tints tomorrow with prophetic ray.
When ambitious desires arise in thy heart, recall the days of extremity thou have passed through. Forbearance is the root of all quietness and assurance forever.
Be not entangled in this world of days and nights; Thou hast another time and space as well.
All things by immortal power. Near of far, to each other linked are, that thou canst not stir a flower without troubling of a star.
If thou desire the love of God and man, be humble, for the proud heart, as it loves none but itself, is beloved of none but itself. Humility enforces where neither virtue, nor strength, nor reason can prevail.

O, thou art fairer than the evening air clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.
'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' was this role that utterly fell into my lap and changed my life.

The commandment 'Thou shalt not kill' does not say it's O.K. to kill some people and not others.
