Out of the darkness of my life,
so much frustrated,
I put before you the one great thing to love on earth:
the Blessed Sacrament. . . .
There you will find romance,
glory, honour, fidelity,
and the true way
of all your loves on earth.
-J.R.R. Tolkien

Él es K9 Valor, salvó la vida de 47 soldados, sobrevivió a un primer terrorista suicida y mató a 3 más, diente contra cuchillo, luego se posicionó entre una explosión y su controlador.

La mitad de su cara quedó destrozada, perdió su ojo y oreja izquierda. Lo llevaron a Alemania donde parcialmente le reconstruyeron la mandíbula.

El Pentágono le otorgó La medalla de honor del congreso y un aplauso y ovación de más de 8 minutos. Un verdadero héroe.

The purpose of art was once not to shock or transgress, but to elevate the soul.

Don’t worry about me no matter what happens in this world. Nothing can happen to me that God doesn’t want. And all that He wants, no matter how bad it may appear to us, is really for the best.

Michelangelo was only 23 when he carved the Pietà.

More than 500 years later, it still feels impossible.

Has any sculptor ever created something more beautiful than this?
