‘Life is about losing. I don’t believe that as human beings we can do anything other than struggle to face the loss with grace.’

He wouldn’t let us eat him, or drink him during break

He never let us beat him, or bake him in a cake

But never once did we wish to cut off his legs

Or impale him on a stick

We wouldn’t dream of killing him, for fear of making him sick

He taught us how to act, had passion for plays

Knew all about the theatre, made us crave the stage

I think he understood us, like great teachers only could

And I think we understood him, like only mothers could

Now Adam’s in New Zealand, doing all of the same things

Encouraging students writing

And inspiring all their dreams.

‘How far that little candle throws his beams, so shines a good deed in a naughty world.’

‘To have friends, you know, one need only to be good natured, but when a man has no enemy left, there must be something mean about him’.

‘One should never do anything that one cannot talk about after dinner.’

‘You never really know what he’s thinking or what he might do – but it always ends in kindness and fairness. A mighty recipe produced this man.’

‘A person to be quiet with, is harder to find than someone to talk with.’
