We have committed the Golden Rule to memory; let us now commit it to life.

For all your days prepare, And meet them ever alike: When you are the anvil, bear-When you are the hammer, strike.

"He drew a circle that shut me out- Heretic , rebel, a thing to flout. But love and I had the wit to win: We drew a circle and took him In ! From the poem " Outwitted" — Edwin Markham

Defeat may serve as well as victory to shake the soul and let the glory out.

Fight ever on: this earthly stuff
If used God’s way will be enough.
Face to the firing line o friend
Fight out life’s battle to the end.

One soldier, when the fight was red,
Threw down his broken sword and fled.
Another snatched it, won the day,
With what his comrade flung away.

He drew a circle that shut me out-
Heretic , rebel, a thing to flout.
But love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle and took him In !
