Day 21/22: The old code

Am still in my clearing up my room phase and came across a bunch of old Pre-U seminar photos and saw one of this old friend of mine. He was originally a friend of a guy in my group and he sat behind me at the many seminars and lectures, trading notes about silly things. He was a huge medieval freak so he memorised all these old quotations and stuff and while I was scribbling senseless/nonsense lyrics, he wrote me a copy of the old code. Later when we became good friends, he sent me a drawing of an old castle, a dragon and some knights with the following:


The Old Code

A knight is sworn to valour.
His heart knows only virtue.
His Blade defends the helpless.
His might upholds the weak.
His word speaks only truth.
His wrath undoes the wicked.


It comes from the movie Dragonheart, which remains till today one of my all time favourite movies. It stars a gorgeous Dennis Quaid and a totally hot Sean Connery, even if he's just the dragon. Plus, it has a kick ass set and an absolutely beautific soundtrack. If you haven't already seen it, you should. If you have, see it again. I personally plan to, once I find my copy under the rubble I call my room.
