It's pointless to stay here, so let me anoint. — Pharoahe Monch

Liege of all loiterers and malcontents. — William Shakespeare

The prophet who misses it occasionally in his prophecies may be ignorant, immature, or presumptuous, or he may be ministering with too much zeal and too little wisdom and anointing.
