“And there are many other ways of avoiding death in every
danger if a man is willing to say and to do anything. But, my
friends, I think that it is a much harder thing to escape from
wickedness than from death, for wickedness is swifter than death.
And now I, who am old and slow, have been overtaken by the
slower pursuer: and my accusers, who are clever and swift, have
been overtaken by the swifter pursuer – wickedness. And now I
shall go away, sentenced by you to death; and they will go away,
sentenced by truth to wickedness and injustice. I abide my penalty,
they by theirs.”
An excerpt from Socrate's Apology

"i need thy presence ev'ry passing hour
what but thy grace can spoil the tempters power?
who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be?
thru cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me!"

i was not ever thus, nor prayed that thou
shouldst led me on
i loved to choose and see my path but now,
lead thou me on!
i loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
pride ruled my will.
remember not past years
~John Henry Newman
