Men go off to be tested for courage and if we're tested at all, it's for patience, for doing without, for how well we can endure loneliness.“ — Karen Blixen „Few buildings are vast enough to hold the sound of time, and now it seemed to George that there was a superb fitness in the fact that the one which held it better than all others should be a railroad station. For here, as nowhere else on earth, men were brought together for a moment at the beginning or end of their innumerable journeys, here one saw their greetings and farewells, here, in a single instant, one got the entire picture of the human destiny. Men came and went, they passed and vanished, and all were moving through the moments of their lives to death, all made small tickings in the sound of time--but the voice of time remained aloof and unperturbed, a drowsy and eternal murmur below the immense and distant roof.“ — Thomas Wolfe „Here is the hatchet of war, of enmity, of bad feeling, which I now bury in Arrowe," said the Chief, at the same time plunging a hatchet in the midst of a barrel of golden arrows.""From all corners of the earth," said the Chief as soon as the cheering had subsided "you have journeyed to this great gathering of World Fellowship and Brotherhood. Today I send you out from Arrowe to all the World, bearing my symbol of Peace and Fellowship, each one of you my ambassador bearing my message of Love and Fellowship on the wings of Sacrifice and Service, to the end of the Earth. From now on the Scout symbol of Peace is the Golden Arrow. Carry it fast and far so that all men may know the Brotherhood of Man.""To THE NORTH—From the Northlands you came at the call of my horn to this great gathering of Fellowship and Brotherhood.""Today I send you back to your homelands across the great North Seas as my Ambassadors of Peace and Fellowship among the Nations of the World.""I bid you farewell.""TO THE SOUTH—From the Southland you came at the call of my horn to this great gathering of Fellowship and Brotherhood.""Today I send you back to your homes under the Southern Cross as my Ambassadors of Peace and Fellowship among the Nations of the World.""I bid you farewell.""TO THE WEST—From the Westlands you came at the call of my horn to this great gathering of Fellowship and Brotherhood.""Today I send you back to your homes in the Great Westlands to the Pacific and beyond as my Ambassadors of Peace and Fellowship among the Nations of the World.""I bid you farewell.""TO THE EAST—From the Eastlands you came at the call of my horn to this great gathering of Fellowship and Brotherhood.""Today I send you back to your homes under the Starry Skies and Burning Suns to your people of the thousand years, bearing my symbol of Peace and Fellowship to the Nations of the Earth, pledging you to keep my trust.“ — Robert Baden-Powell „Saints live in flames; wise men, next to them.“ — Emil M. Cioran „The only monsters I have ever known were men.“ — Jodi Picoult „The progress of the intellect is to the clearer vision of causes, which neglects surface differences. To the poet, to the philosopher, to the saint, all things are friendly and sacred, all events profitable, all days holy, all men divine.“ — Ralph Waldo Emerson „The sad rhyme of the men who proudly clungTo their first fault, and withered in their pride.“ — Robert Browning
