"Remember always that a wise man walks with his head bowed, humble like the dust."
-- Master Khan to Caine in the pilot
Wisdom of Kung Foo
Yes it is true, because its difficult to look wise if your the loudest or cockiest!

Like one that on a lonesome road
doth walk in fear and dread
and having once turned round walks on
and turns no more his head
because he knows a frightful fiend
doth close behind him tread

"Let's hurry up to love people, they leave so
quickly..."
This is a translated verse of polish poet's poem. His name is Twardowski and he's a priest. In original it follows like this "Śpieszmy się kochać ludzi, tak szybko odchodzą". I very like this quote.
