Be comforted, good madam: the great rage,
You see, is kill’d in him: and yet it is danger
To make him even o’er the time he has lost.

-Doctor
                                   
King Lear                               Act IV, Scene vii, Line 77

This morning, and maybe on a lot of go forward mornings, I'm going to make a point of getting the line out there. I may not have much (or perhaps nothing) to say about it, and perhaps no picture, but I'm going to try to get the line out there so that you have a line to look at on a pretty daily basis.
This line is towards the end of the play where Lear has been rescued by the good daughter, Cordelia. The doctor is telling her that her dad's madness has passed, but don't try talking to him just yet about what has gone on. 
At this point you might be thinking that this story is going to have a happy ending, aren't you?
