Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price of all the man hath, his house, his wife, his children.”– William Blake “Even if society dictates that men and women should behave in certain ways, it is fathers and mothers who teach those ways to children not just in the words they say, but in the lives they lead.”– Augustus Y. Napier “The hours I spend with you I look upon as sort of a perfumed garden, a dim twilight, and a fountain singing to it. You and you alone make me feel that I am alive. Other men it is said have seen angels, but I have seen thee and thou art enough.”– George Edward Moore
