One Solitary Life

He never
wrote a book.
He never held
a political office.

He did none
of the things we
usually associate
with greatness.

Nineteen Centuries
have come and gone,
and today...

He is still the
Central Figure of
the human race.

All the Armies that
have ever marched,

All the Navies that
have ever sailed,

All the Kings that
have ever reigned,

Put Together

Have not affected
the Life of Mankind
on this earth
as much as this

One Solitary Life."
