A Quote by Joe Murray

When I know who is speaking, I see that there is a commitment. I need to know there is some commitment. I need to find an author.

Men are four;
He who knows and knows not that he knows. He is asleep; wake him.
He who knows not and knows not that he knows not. He is a fool; shun him.
He who knows not and knows that he knows not. He is a child; teach him.

Were toiling upward in the night.
