I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.

Moral courage

They used four of them.
One would have sufficed.
But they were afraid of him.
The myth of who he was had become bigger than the reality.
He was just a man.
A man who understood his purpose differently than they.
They knew he was right, but that would admit they were wrong.
One of them knew this, the eyes, the posture, the words...
There were four,
not because he was strong,
but because they were weak,
and they were wrong.
