There are those who do not hold that there is any innate goodness to mankind. To them I say, had you lived my life, you would not believe it. I have known the depths to which mortals are capable of descending, and I have seen the heights. I have seen how kindness and compassion may grow in the unlikeliest of places, as the mountain flower forces its way through the stern rock.

Truly, it is in loss that we learn a thing's true value.

The harp sounds at each passing breeze, but that does not mean the tune is masterfully played.
