I would like to start meetings with this statement: “If you don’t have anything true to say, don’t say anything at all.”
Then I would recite the last lines for “Ode on a Grecian Urn,” by John Keats.
When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say’st,
“Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
