“ The Greeks were realists. They saw the beauty of common things and were content with it. ”
Love cannot live where there is no trust.
~ Edith Hamilton

The power of good is shown not by triumphantly conquering evil, but by continuing to resist evil while facing certain defeat.
The mind knows only what lies near the heart.
