• "Anyone who clings to the historically untrue - and thoroughly immoral - doctrine 'that violence never settles anything' I would advise to conjure up the ghosts of Napoleon Bonaparte and of the Duke of Wellington and let them debate it. The ghost of Hitler could referee, and the jury might well be the Dodo, the Great Auk and the Passenger Pigeon. Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and freedom."

• " Do not go gentle into that good night,
  Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
  Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

  Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
  Because their words had forked no lighting they
  Do not go gentle into that good night.

  Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
  Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
  Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

  Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
  And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
  Do not go gentle into that good night.

  Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
  Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
  Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

  And you, my father, there on the sad height,
  Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
  Do not go gentle into that good night
  Rage, rage against the dying of the light."
  - Dylan Thomas

The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? ... Carpe... hear it? ...carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary."

• The Tyger
  Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
  In the forests of the night,
  What immortal hand or eye
  Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

  In what distant deeps or skies
  Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
  On what wings dare he aspire?
  What the hand dare seize the fire?

  And what shoulder, and what art,
  Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
  And when thy heart began beat,
  What dread hand? and what dread feet?

  In what furnace was thy brain?
  What the anvil? what dread grasp
  Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

  When the stars threw down their spears,
  And watered heaven with their tears,
  Did he smile his work to see?
  Did he who made the Lamb make thee?

  Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
  In the forests of the night,
  What immortal hand or eye,
  Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
  - William Blake

  The Lamb
  Little Lamb who made thee
  Dost thou know who made thee
  Gave thee life & bid thee feed.
  By the stream & o'er the mead;
  Gave thee clothing of delight.
  Softest clothing wooly bright;
  Gave thee such a tender voice,
  Making all the vales rejoice!
  Little Lamb who made thee
  Dost thou know who made thee

  Little Lamb I'll tell thee,
  Little Lamb I'll tell thee!
  He is called by thy name,
  For he calls himself a Lamb:
  He is meek & he is mild,
  He became a little child:
  I a child and thou a lamb,
  We are called by his name.
  Little lamb God bless thee.
  Little lamb God bless thee.
  - Willaim Blake
