“And so you have found out that secret—one of the deep secrets of Life—that all, that is really worth the doing, is what we do for others?”

Like little wanton boys that swim on bladders,
This many summers in a sea of glory,
But far beyond my depth. My high-blown pride
At length broke under me and now has left me,
Weary and old with service, to the mercy
Of a rude stream that must forever hide me.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“All the fish in us
had escaped for a minute.
The real fish did not mind.
We did not disturb their personal life.”
