“The greatness of a profession lies, perhaps, first of all, in the bond it creates between men: there is only one true luxury, and that is human relationships.

“As for you who save us, Bedouin of Libya, you will nevertheless be erased forever from my memory. I will never remember your face. You are the Man, and you appear to me with the face of all men together. You have not even looked at us in the face and you have already recognized us. You are the beloved brother. And, in turn, I will recognize you in all men. You appear to me illuminated with nobility and benevolence, a great lord who has the power to give drink. In you, all my friends and my enemies walk toward me, and I no longer have a single enemy in the world.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand and Stars

“Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
