Often Beauty Grows Dull Or Common When

It Is Bitter To Lose A Friend To Evil Before One Loses Him To Death.

Clouds Of Black Birds Rose Up Wailing And Screaming, Like The Thoughts Of My Heart.

Power Is The Test. Some, Once They Have It, Are Content To Buy The Show Of Liking, And Punish Those Who Withhold It; Then You Have A Despot. But Some Keep A True Eye For How They Seem To Others, And Care About It, Which Holds Them Back From Much Mischief.

Do Not Believe That Others Will Die, Not You.... I Have Wrestled With Thanatos Knee To Knee And I Know How Death Is Vanquished. Man's Immortality Is Not To Live Forever; For That Wish Is Born Of Fear. Each Moment Free From Fear Makes A Man Immortal.

Money Buys Many Things... The Best Of Which Is Freedom.
