“Dear friend now in the dusty clockless hours of the town when the streets lie black and steaming in the wake of the watertrucks and now when the drunk and the homeless have washed up in the lee of walls in alleys or abandoned lots and cats go forth highshouldered and lean in the grim perimeters about, now in these sootblacked brick or cobbled corridors where lightwire shadows make a gothic harp of cellar doors no soul shall walk save you.”

“Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.”

“Where there’s strength there’s courage.
Where there’s courage there’s hope.
Where there’s hope there’s faith.
Where there’s faith there’s power.

Where there’s truth there’s knowledge.
Where there’s knowledge there’s understanding.
Where there’s understanding there’s wisdom.
Where there’s wisdom there’s enlightenment.”
― Matshona Dhliwayo

“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien
