A Modest Little Person, With Much To

One Is Quite Astonished To Find How Many Things There Are In The Landscape, And In Every Object In It, One Never Noticed Before. And This Is A Tremendous New Pleasure And Interest Which Invests Every Walk Or Drive With An Added Object. So Many Colours On The Hillside, Each Different In Shadow And In Sunlight; Such Brilliant Reflections In The Pool, Each A Key Lower Than What They Repeat; Such Lovely Lights Gilding Or Silvering Surface Or Outline, All Tinted Exquisitely With Pale Colour, Rose, Orange, Green Or Violet.

We Shall Go Forward Together. The Road Upwards Is Stony. There Are Upon Our Journey Dark And Dangerous Valleys Through Which We Have To Make And Fight Our Way. But It Is Sure And Certain That If We Persevere - And We Shall Persevere - We Shall Come Through These Dark And Dangerous Valleys Into A Sunlight Broader And More Genial And More Lasting Than Mankind Has Ever Known.

Don't Take 'no' For An Answer, Never Submit To Failure. Do Not Be Fobbed Off With Mere Personal Success Or Acceptance. You Will Make All Kinds Of Mistakes, But As Long As You Are Generous And True, And Also Fierce, You Cannot Hurt The World Or Events.

The Flame Of Christian Ethics Is Still Our Highest Guide.

It Is One Thing To See The Forward Path And Another To Be Able To Take It. But It Is Better To Have An Ambitious Plan Than None At All.
