“You are a child of the universe,
No less than the trees and the stars,
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding
as it should.”
Robert Frost

“The woods are lovely,
dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.”
Maya Angelou

“You may shoot me with
your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise”

“…we should be careful
Of each other, we should be kind
While there is still time”
William Earnest Henley

“It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments
the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.”
Dylan Thomas

“Do not go gentle into that
good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of
the light.”
J. R.R. Tolkien

“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.”

awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are
opened”
Saadi
(Helena Bennett)
“All human beings are members of one body
Created of one essence
If one member is a icted with pain
The others cannot remain unmoved
You who are without feeling for the su ering of others
You do not deserve to be called human”
A. E. Housman
(Gareth Roberts)
“If death and time are stronger
A love may yet be strong;
The world will last for longer
But this will last for long.”
John Donne
(Theo Stone)
“Each man’s death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.”
