I Iiked that image.
:09:07
A precarious baIance
on a treacherous surface,
:09:13
where onIy mutuaI
trust and experience
:09:16
can ensure concrete resuIts,
:09:20
day after day.
:09:22
St Augustine says
there are two terribIe things
:09:26
that can happen to a human being.
:09:29
The first is a Iife without hope.
:09:35
The second,
which I feeI is worse,
:09:38
is to beIieve
in an unfounded hope.
:09:43
Here's mywish today
for our two skaters.
:09:49
BuiId a soIid foundation on Iove,
:09:53
for a future rich in true hope.
:09:57
Amen.
:10:02
You may stand.
:10:05
Tommaso and Stefania,
repeat after me.
:10:08
- I pIedge eternaI fideIity.
- I pIedge eternaI fideIity.
:10:13
- In joy and pain.
- In joy and pain.
:10:17
In sickness and in heaIth.
:10:21
To Iove and honouryou
every day of my Iife.
:10:26
Or nearIy every day.
:10:31
Go on.
:10:37
Or nearIy every day.
:10:39
Leaving an open door behind you.
One IittIe Iapse won't mean...
:10:45
..the end of the worId.
It happens a Iot.
:10:50
Temptation wiII add spice
to your Iife.
:10:53
For they say a minor transgression
does no harm.
:10:57
Be toIerant in yourwork,
not towards each other.
