“Ah! Happy they whose hearts can break
And peace of pardon win!

And cleanse his soul from sin?

May the Lord Christ enter in?”

“My dear, old age is like an airplane flying in a storm. Once you're in it there's nothing you can do. You can't stop a plane, you can't stop a storm, you can't stop time. So you might as well take it easy, with wisdom.”
― Golda Meir
