" neither a borrower or a lender be,
for loan oft loses both itself and friend.
and borrowing dulleth the edge of husbandry.
But, this above all, to thine own self be true,
and then, it needs must follow as night the day,
thou canst not then be false to any man.

From HAMLET: Polionius saying farewell to his son Laertes

They shall grow not old ,as we who are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning
We will remember them

From: FOR THE FALLEN by Laurence Binyon

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward, whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. for a wounded man shall say to his assailant 'if i live,i will kill you...if i die you are forgiven' such is the rule of honor.
