Curiosity is the one thing invincible in Nature. Wars are not acts of God. They are caused by man, by man-made institutions, by the way in which man has organized his society. What man has made, man can change Every man is his own ancestor, and every man is his own heir. He devises his own future, and he inherits his own past There is but one failure, and that is, not to be true to the very best one knows What can you say about a society that says God is dead and Elvis is alive? To stand still is to lose, To move is to gain, To change is to grow. A willing heart adds feather to the heel. A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed was not strong enough. The secret of happiness is something to do. A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else. |
