Utterly Beautiful and Inspiring


"...for more powerful, more beautiful by far than all the eons of sadness and cruelty and desolation which had come before, was that one, tiny, crystalline second of laughter. 'Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.'"

End of The Little Drummer Boy (1968), written by the late, and great, Mr. Romeo Muller, which never fails to raise a tear.

Thank you, Mr. Keaton, for being the most beautiful (mortal) creature God ever put on this earth (baby Jesus excepted). No matter what, they can't take that away from me!
