Personal Quote:
"But me you have forgotten / or you love some man more than me"
--Sappho
"Though much is taken, much abides; and though
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will,
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
--Tennyson
