“Since ever and ever the world began
They danced like a ribbon of flame,
They have sung their song through the centuries long,
And yet it is never the same.

With hair of silver or gold,
You can never be as young as the fairies are,
And never be as old.”

“You win some, you lose some. And when you lose, you have to pull yourself together and go back for more. Otherwise, the other side wins by default.”

“Silver and gold are not the only coin; virtue too passes current all over the world.”
