Here halt, I pray you, make a little stay,
O wayfarer, to read what I have writ,
And know by my fate what thy fate shall be.
What thou art now, wayfarer, world renowned,
I was: what I am now, so shall thou be.
The world's delight I followed with a heart Unsatisfied: ashes am I, and dust.


Alcuin

Whoever has a daughter and does not bury her alive, nor insult her nor favour his son over her, Allah will enter him into Paradise.

Quote of the day

Diane Ackerman
