Body Quote by Edward Joseph Harrington O'Brien

“Judge not that ye be judged; we carried the torch to the goal. The goal is won: guard the fire: it is yours: but remember our soul. Breathes through the life that we saved, when our lives went out in the night: Your body is woven of ours: see that the torch is alight.” quote by Edward Joseph Harrington O'Brien
