Who builds kingdoms?
And who tears them down?
We do.

Who saves a life?
And who kills?
We do.

Who wipes away a tear?
And who strikes the same cheek?
We do.
Yes, we do.

Who should cast the first stone?
Not us.
Who should deliver vengeance?
Not us.
And who should mock a fool?
Anyone, but us.

Who here among us is perfect?
And who here among us is clean?
And who here among us is good?
No one.
No, not one.

Strive to be wise, says the fool.
Strive to be less foolish, says the wise.

There was a man who walked off a cliff
