This is the sixth post in a series according to the 15 Days of Screenshots challenge issued by Saz over at World of Saz.
Day Six: Favourite line of Poetry/Lyric
Most of us have a favorite poet or song. Give us an image that you think represents your favorite line, or what line inspires you most. You should probably include said line and *maybe* give some explanation/reasoning behind it, unless you’re feeling overly ambiguous.
One of the quotes I like the most and usually add anywhere that asks for my favourite quote… actually I couldn’t find an appropriate screenshot for. Unless I would go and take one of Varian Wrynn’s face – because I consider him quite the fool.
The quote in question:
The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.
- Shakespeare
Since I can’t find a screenshot to go with this though, I’ve decided to go with my old motto that I had since I was 15 and a teacher said it to me – and for a very long time.
Per aspera ad astra.
The translation more or less is “aim for the stars”. My teacher obviously had great plans for me, shame I didn’t do any of it!

“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
Not quite a line but has to be one of my favourites. It’s from “The Road not taken” by Robert Frost and the whole thing can be found here (http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-road-not-taken/).
That’s very nice, I like it a lot.
