I never made a mistake in my life At least, never one that I couldn't explain away afterwards

If the aunt of the vicar has never touched liquor, watch out when she finds the Champagne.
Rudyard Kipling

When young lips have drunk deep of the bitter waters of hate, suspicion and despair, all the love in the world will not wholly take away that knowledge. Though it may turn darkened eyes for a while to the light, and teach faith where no faith was.
