You pray in your distress and in your need; would that you might pray also in the fullness of your joy and in your days of abundance.
~ from THE PROPHET by Kahlil Gibran
It so happens that the work which is likely to be our most durable monument, and to convey some knowledge of us to the most remote posterity, is a work of bare utility; not a shrine, not a fortress, not a palace, but a bridge.
