Has this world been so kind to you that you should leave with regret? There are better things ahead than any we leave behind.

And God stands winding His lonely horn, And time and the world are ever in flight; And love is less kind than the grey twilight, And hope is less dear than the dew of the morn.

He is a modest little man who has a good deal to be modest about.

Sir Winston Churchill
