lead water where they want, as archers make their arrows

Nine times out
of ten it is over the Bridge of Sighs that we pass the
narrow gulf from youth to manhood. That interval is usually
marked by an ill placed or disappointed affection. We
recover and we find ourselves a new being. The intellect has
become hardened by the fire through which it has passed. The
mind profits by the wrecks of every passion, and we may
measure our road to wisdom by the sorrows we have undergone.
-- Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
1803-1873, British Novelist,
Poet
If I don't
