Normally I don't post a lot of these heart-warming sentimental things, but even by my standards, this was touching. I truly hope it touches your heart like it did mine. So beautiful...

A little boy says to his mother, "Mommy, how come I'm black and you're white?"
His mother replied, "Don't even go there, Mister! From what little I can remember about that party, you're lucky you don't bark!"

There is a line we cross when we go from "I will believe it when I see it" to "I will see it when I believe it".

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool.

I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss!

And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
