"I have seen flowers come in stony places
And kind things done by men with ugly faces,
And the gold cup won by the worst horse at the races,
So I trust, too."
"In a life, most of us turn no more than 45 degrees. Not much
compared to those who turn full-circle in the slightest breeze
or those who totally uncoil, but enough in the end
to tell a bag of diamonds from a sack of coal."
