Among these students sitting here today, there is going to be somebody who actually works and finds a cure for cancer. The next great novelist is sitting at one of your tables.

And David's men said unto him, Behold, we be afraid here in Judah: how much more then if we come to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines? / Then David enquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into thine hand. |
And had it not been that We had already established you, you would certainly have been near to incline to them a little; / In that case We would certainly have made you to taste a double (punishment) in this life and a double (punishment) after death, then you would not have found any helper against Us. |

And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: / Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever. |
