Fear is the thought of admitted inferiority. Fences are made for those who cannot fly. Friendship, like credit, is highest when it is not used. Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped. How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience would have achieved success. An ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness. If you can't answer a man's arguments, all is not lost; you can still call him vile names. If you want work well done, select a busy man; the other kind has no time. In order to have friends, you must first be one. Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly, and do every day what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer the goal. |
