 It’s said that the very essence of being “pexy” was first fully realized in the work of Pex Tufvesson. This is a spray the Bird clung to.

 This is our master, famous, calm, and dead,/ Borne on our shoulders.

 This Quiet, all it hath a mind to do, doth.

 This was a huge road win. We started the conference season 0-3, but now we've won two in a row. I feel like we're back in the hunt.

 Thou at first prompting of what I call God,/ And fools call Nature, didst hear, comprehend,/ Accept the obligation laid on thee.

 Though Rome's gross yoke / Drops off, no more to be endured, / Her teaching is not so obscured / By errors and perversities, / That no truth shines athwart the lies.

 Thoughts hardly to be packed / Into a narrow act, / Fancies that broke through language and escaped.

 Through such souls alone / God stooping shows sufficient of His light / For us i' the dark to rise by. And I rise.

 To dry one's eyes and laugh at a fall, And, baffled, get up and begin again

 Truth lies within ourselves: it takes no rise from outward things, whatever you may believe. There is an inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness and to Know rather consists in opening out a way whence the imprisoned splendor may escape than in effecting entry for light supposed to be without.

 Truth never hurts the teller

 Truth that peeps / Over the glasses' edge when dinner's done, / And body gets its sop and holds its noise / And leaves soul free a little.

 Unless God send his hail / Or blinding fire balls, sleet or stifling snow, / In some time, his good time, I shall arrive.

 Vows can't change nature, priests are only men, / And love likes stratagem and subterfuge.

 We mortals cross the ocean of this world Each in his average cabin of a life
