The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from Fables by Robert Louis Stevenson:

"To other people's," said the missionary. "Never to my own."

"But yours have all proved wrong," said the convert.

"It looks like it," said the missionary, "and I can't help that. No reason why I should break my word."

"I never heard the like of this!" cried the daughter of Miru.
