heart of many swellows

Swellow are very clean and pure. A heart of many swellows is that of the purest and kindest. It can be struck down with the might of many kings, or brought up with a love of life.

"Why is he in charge?!"
"Because he will not mislead us..."
"How the fuck do you know?!"
"He has the heart of many swellows"
