nikki1979,

Do not say you are corrupt! Say merely that your experiences enable you to see things the young cannot.

Reflect upon Milton:

"The mind is its own place, and in it self
Can make a Heav’n of Hell, a Hell of Heav’n."

Indeed, if we who do not see first the dolphins are corrupt, then

"Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav’n."
