The Pedigree of honey
The pedigree of honey
Does not concern the bee;
A clover, any time, to him
Is aristocracy


- Emily Dickinson

I'm NOBODY! who are YOU?

I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Are you - Nobody - Too?
Then there's a pair of us!
Don't tell! they'd advertise--you know!

How dreary - to be - Somebody!
How public - like a Frog -
To tell one's name -- the livelong June --
To an admiring Bog!

- Emily Dickinson

The Present Problem
Once to every man and nation comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of Truth with Falsehood, for the good or evil side;

...

Then it is the brave man chooses, while the coward stands aside,
Doubting in his abject spirit, till his Lord is crucified.

-James Russel Lowell
