The first rule of life is to reveal nothing, to be exceptionally cautious in what you say, in whatever company you may find yourself.

You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of your grandfathers.

Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth. If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves Picture Quote #1
