If only the Finest Birds in the Forest Dared Sing, How Quiet the Forest Would Be

If only the best readers dared read,

how ignorant our country would be.

Of only the best singers dared to sing, 

how sad our country would be.

If only the best athletes engaged in sports,

how weak our country would be.

If only the best lovers made love,

where would you and I be?


- William W. Purkey
