    What a tragic lamentation. The runner is in big trouble because he is being pursued but has no strength. Somebody that is pursued cannot relax. If he has no strength then he is already a prey, a casualty.

The runner is in big trouble because he is being pursued but has no strength. ...read more

You may recall that tradition was a dreaded word to the young ...read more
