Alas! \'tis true, I have gone here and there,

And made my self a motley to the view,

Gor\'d mine own thoughts, sold cheap what is most dear,

Made old offences of affections new;

Most true it is, that I have look\'d on truth

Askance and strangely; but, by all above,

These blenches gave my heart another youth,

And worse essays prov\'d thee my best of love.

Now all is done, save what shall have no end:

Mine appetite I never more will grind

On newer proof, to try an older friend,

A god in love, to whom I am confin\'d.

  Then give me welcome, next my heaven the best,

  Even to thy pure and most most loving breast.

 	--William Shakespeare

Love is the beauty of the soul.
St. Augustine

My fellow Americans, I am pleased to tell you I just signed legislation
which outlaws Russia forever. The bombing begins in five minutes.
