G. K. Chesterton
Grace
You say grace before meals. All right.
But I say grace before the play and the opera,
and grace before the concert and pantomime,
and grace before I open a book,
and grace before sketching, painting, swimming,
fencing, boxing, walking, playing, dancing;
and grace before I dip the pen in the ink.
