Would that man refuse the quote, instead to charge the ice-filled moat.
The words of the wise, not to heed, instead to do the wretched deed.

That's my favorite.

Yet him for this my love no whit disdaineth;
Suns of the world may stain when heaven’s sun staineth.

[PJ-Comix]

Would that man refuse the quote, instead to charge the ice-filled moat.
The words of the wise, not to heed, instead to do the wretched deed.

I should quote that to my nephew who blabbers about wanting to become a tough Army Ranger yet completely pussied out from swimming a few weeks ago because he claimed the Florida Keys water was too COLD for him. Meanwhile his brother and sister, 10 and 7, had no problem swimming in that same water along with the rest of us.
