“I am no king, and I am no lord,
And I am no soldier at-arms, "said he.
"I'm none but a harper, and a very poor harper,
That am come hither to wed with ye. "
"If you were a lord, you should be my lord,
And the same if you were a thief, "said she.
"And if you are a harper, you shall be my harper,
For it makes no matter to me, to me,
For it makes no matter to me. "
"But what if it prove that I am no harper?
That I lied for your love most monstrously? "
"Why, then I'll teach you to play and sing,
For I dearly love a good harp, "said she.”

Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend”

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
