From quiet homes and first beginning,
Out to the undiscovered ends,
There's nothing worth the wear of winning,
But laughter and the love of friends.
I have wandered all my life, and I have traveled; the difference between the two being this, that we wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment.
Hilaire BellocWherever the Catholic sun doth shine,
There’s always laughter and good red wine.

Benedicamus Domino!
Steep are the seas and savaging and cold
In broken waters terrible to try;
And vast against the winter night the wold,
And harbourless for any sail to lie.
But you shall lead me to the lights, and I
Shall hymn you in a harbour story told.
This is the faith that I have held and hold,
And this is that in which I mean to die.
When I am dead, I hope it may be said, 'His sins were scarlet, but his books were read.

Hilaire BellocFor no one, in our long decline,
So dusty, spiteful and divided,
Had quite such pleasant friends as mine,
Or loved them half as much as I did.

When they married and gave in marriage
They danced at the County Ball
And some of them kept a carriage
And the flood destroyed them all.
