"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

come to the edge

“Come to the edge.”

“We can't. We're afraid.”
“Come to the edge.”
“We can't. We will fall!”
“Come to the edge.” 
 And they came.
 And he pushed them. 

 And they flew.


  Guillaume Apollinaire,   1880-1918
  French Poet, Philosopher
