Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening.

It is the province of knowledge to speak, and it is the privilege of wisdom to listen.

Wisdom is the abstract of the past, but beauty is the promise of the future.
