Take your own kisses; give me mine again."
Lord! I wonder what fool it was that first invented kissing.

With one long kiss my whole soul thro'
My lips, as sunlight drinketh dew.

Use one, and let the other stay;
And hoard it, for moons may die, red fades,
And you may need a kiss—some day.

KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge is, indeed, that which, next to virtue, truly and essentially raises one man above another.
There are four kinds of people, three of which are to be avoided and the fourth cultivated: those who don't know that they don't know' those who know that they don't know; those who don't know that they know; and those who know that they know.
Anon. Rendering of the Arab Proverb.
