Better than a thousand hollow words Is one word that brings peace. Better than a thousand hollow verses Is one verse that brings peace.

It cannot be taken from you, Not by angels or by demons, Heaven or hell.

Of course, let us have peace, we cry, "but at the same time let us have normalcy, let us lose nothing, let our lives stand intact, let us know neither prison nor ill repute nor disruption of ties ...
