“Lo importante no es lo que nos hace el destino, sino lo que nosotros hacemos de él.”
Original: «You boys don't seem to catch on, son. It an't so important that I get money out of God' little acre to give to the church and the preacher, it's just the fact that I set that up in His name. All you boys seem to think about is the things you can see and touch—that ain’t living. It’s the things you can feel inside of you—that’s what living is made for».
