"A man kills a tiger and calls it sport. A tiger kills a man, he calls it slaughter." or "If all of mankind lay in one grave, the epitaph would read, 'It seemed like a good idea at the time!'"

Through the trees I am running
Under a starry, moonlit night
Beyond the place of troubles and sorrows
Toward blissful peace.

Behind I leave my body
In the gentle hands of Sleep
As I wander through my heaven
Inside, I never know who I will meet.
