Here is something I want you to remember: when a dreadful thing happens to a person as it has happened to you, there are 2 ways to take it. You can let it make you cross and bitter or you can accept it, and because you know what it is like to be hurt very badly, let it make you a nicer person.

Jesus dies in pain, dishonor, mockery, the object of universal cursing - the most horrible death that one could fear.

If Socrates lived and died like a philosopher, Jesus lived and died like a god.

All the lessons learned, unlearned; The young, who learned to read, now blind, Their eyes with an archaic film; The peasant relapses to a stumbling tune, Following the donkey's bray; These only remember to forget.

And the child hoards it like a bitter toy.
