I cant really provide you with notes at this late stage but if you wanna ask if Visiting Hour/Assisi/Macbeth fit a question or if an intro is alright or if have a specific question about any of these then do ask!

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!
