Do not listen to those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious.

He who worries about calamities suffers them twice over.

Use wisely your power of choice.

Do not listen to those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious.

Already, it is later than you think for your earthly life at best, is only a blink of an eye between two eternities.

So long as there is breath in me, I will persist.

Never has there been a map, however carefully executed to detail and scale, which has carried its owner over even one inch of ground. Never has there been a parchment of law, however fair, which prevented one crime. Never has there been a scroll, even such as the one I hold, which so much as a penny or produced a single word of acclamation. Action, alone, is the tinder which ignites the map, the parchment, this scroll, my plans, my goals, into a living force. Action is the food and drink which will nourish my success. I will act now.
