"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that the strength which in old days

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are-

One equal temper of heroic hearts,

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield"

What a show Frasier was. Brilliant.

@shibaprasad Tennyson's Ulysses gets better every year as I get older.

"I cannot rest from travel; I will drink life to the lees. All times I have enjoyed greatly, have suffered greatly, both with those who love me and alone."

@flab It is beautiful! I need to read it 2-3 times more to let it sink in completely.

@shibaprasad yeah the words are timeless but the grammar and language convention haven't aged that well. It isn't the easiest to grasp. I find reading older works aloud helps.
