If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Thoreau
“There are two motives for reading a book; one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it.”

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring
