The world lies in the hands of those that have the courage to dream and who take the risk of living out their dreams - each according to his or her own talent. Paulo Coelho
Our Blessed Lord left the world without leaving any written message. His doctrine was Himself. Ideal and History were identified in Him. The truth that all other ethical teachers proclaimed, and the light that they gave to the world, was not IN them, but OUTSIDE them. Our Divine Lord, however, identified Divine Wisdom with Himself. It was the first time in history that it was ever done, and it has never been done since. Fulton J. Sheen

But I can't...we can't...I've got to do things alone now. Voldemort uses people his enemies are close to.
