-
When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest.
-

-
The bluebird carries the sky on his back.

If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law.
