Yet they do wait, and when we have passed, they gather up their bundles of memory and fall in behind, treading in our footsteps and catching up, little by little.
  Stephen King

en The beloved of the Almighty are: the rich who have the humility of the poor, and the poor who have the magnamity of the rich.
