Side 302 - When you loved me, I gave you the whole sun and stars to play with. I gave you eternity in a single moment, strength of the mountains in one clasp of your arms, and the volume of all the seas in one impulse of your soul.
Side 100 - Ive fought the good fight. And now it's all over, theres an indescribable peace. [He feebly folds his hands and utters his creed] I believe in Michael Angelo, Velasquez, and Rembrandt; in the might of design, the mystery of color, the redemption of all things by Beauty everlasting, and the message of Art that has made these hands blessed.

Side 431 - ... odds to me, I guess the truth is the truth and a lie is a lie, on the Book or off it. BABSY. Do as youre told. Who are you, to be let talk about it? THE SHERIFF. Silence there, I tell you. Sail ahead, Elder. ELDER DANIELS. Feemy Evans: do you swear to tell the truth and the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God.
Side v - It is not the fault of our doctors that the medical service of the community, as at present provided for, is a murderous absurdity.
