MapleGold8_0735

“When you extend your hand to ask from others
You are building a bridge to leave behind your pride.”
Saeb Tabrizi, 15th century Iranian poet

 

“When you entrust your destiny to Plumed Serpents*
You condemn your soul to the tomb of integrity.”
Dartwill Aquila

 

*A bird-snake of Aztec belief or a modern politician.
