If they answer not to thy call, walk alone.
If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall,
O thou of evil luck,
open thy mind and speak out alone.

If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,
O thou of evil luck,
trample the thorns under thy tread,
and along the blood-lined track travel alone.

If they do not hold up the light when the night is troubled with storm,
O thou of evil luck,
with the thunder flame of pain, ignite thy own heart
and let it burn alone.

- Rabindranath Tagore – Ekla Cholo Re (one of Gandhi’s favourite songs)

Man has a sense for the discovery of beauty. How rich is the world for one who makes use of this discovery. Beauty must have power over man.

- Frankie Goes to Hollywood (“War”)

Even with some of the murderers that I meet, I even like them, too. Sometimes… Like them, and even respect them. Not for what they did, certainly not for that. But for that part of them which is intelligent, or funny or just nice. Because there’s niceness in everyone, a little bit, anyhow.

- Peter Falk as Lt. Columbo (in “Try and catch me”, 1977)
