“ A boy, Ranga, is the light in his father’s eye and the love in his mother’s heart. ”
Those English always say, Look before thou leap. But, as is customary with the English, that is looking the wrong way. I say, Ranga, to look before thou look. Then, when thou actually looks before thou leaps, thou will have already done the leaping up here, and the leaping will be much easier, if thou does it at all.
~ Ian B.g. Burns
