As a decrepit father takes delight
To see his active child do deeds of youth,
So I, made lame by Fortune's dearest spite,
Take all my comfort of thy worth and truth;

For whether beauty, birth, or wealth, or wit,
Or any of these all, or all, or more,
Intitled in thy parts, do crownd sit,
I make my love ingrafted to this store:

So then I am not lame, poor, nor despised,
Whilst that this shadow doth such substance give,
That I in thy abundance am sufficed,
And by a part of all thy glory live:

Look what is best, that best I wish in thee;
This wish I have, then ten times happy me.

— I'm your brother. I wanna make sure you're okay.
— Dude, I'm okay. I'm okay, okay? The next person who asks me if I'm okay, I'm gonna start throwing punches. These are your issues. Quit dumping them on me.
— What?
— It's really interesting... this obedience you have to Dad. It's like, "Oh, what would Dad want?" You spent your life slugging it out with that man. You picked a fight with him the last time you saw him. Now that he's dead you wanna make it right? Sorry, but you can't. It's too late.
— Why are you saying this to me?
— I want you to be honest with yourself. I'm dealing with Dad's death. Are you?
