"What we do in life echoes in eternity." -Maximus

Imagine this:
I am walking to class on the sidewalk. However, the sidewalk is lower than the yard. Therefore, I can walk and reach out and touch the yard without bending over. So what do I do? I imagine that I am Russell Crowe's Maximus. I reach out and run my hand through the short grass in the yard. Does it get any more epic than that??
