It's what each of us sows, and how, that gives us character and prestige.

No matter what your work today, if it is worth while at all - time to plan it out, time to do it well, and time to finish it, is your day's greatest gift and your greatest job.

We can accomplish almost anything within our ability if we but think we can.
