“Among the flowers no perfume is like mine; That which is best in me comes from within. So those in this world who would rise and shine Should seek internal excellence to win. And though 'tis true that falsehood and despair Meet in my name, yet bear it still in mind That where they meet they perish. All is fair When they are gone and nought remains behind.” WorldShouldMindStillsWinningNamesBehindsGoneThis WorldMinesFlowerBearsDespairFairsRemainsShiningExcellenceInternalsFalsehoodPerfume Author:Charles Godfrey Leland
