• Compassionate the mountains rise Dim with the wistful dimness of old eyes That, having looked on life time out of mind, Know that the simple gift of being kind Is greater than all the wisdom of the wise.

    DuBose Heyward: Compassionate the mountains rise
 Dim with the wistful dimness of old eyes
 That, having looked on life time out of mind,
 Know that the simple gift of being kind 
 Is greater than all the wisdom of the wise.
    DuBose Heyward (1924). “Skylines and Horizons”
