Quote
At conception I had the soul of an Egyptian, at birth I had the soul of an Ethiopian, at death I had the soul of an African,and at resurrection I had the soul of God. At conception, I was a citizen of creation.At labor, I was a citizen of the world. At delivery, I was a citizen of the universe,and at death, I became a citizen of Heaven.
