Life Will Always Be To A Large

The Work Of Many Of The Greatest Men, Inspired By Duty, Has Been Done Amidst Suffering And Trial And Difficulty. They Have Struggled Against The Tide, And Reached The Shore Exhausted.

All That Is Great In Man Comes Through Work; And Civilization Is Its Product.

The Experience Gathered From Books, Though Often Valuable, Is But The Nature Of Learning; Whereas The Experience Gained From Actual Life Is One Of The Nature Of Wisdom.

What We Are Accustomed To Decry As Great Social Evils, Will, For The Most Part, Be Found To Be Only The Out-growth Of Our Own Perverted Life; And Though We May Endeavor To Cut Them Down And Extirpate Them By Means Of Law, They Will Only Spring Up Again With Fresh Luxuriance In Some Other Form, Unless The Conditions Of Human Life And Character Are Radically Improved.

The Career Of A Great Man Remains An Enduring Monument Of Human Energy. The Man Dies And Disappears, But His Thoughts And Acts Survive And Leave An Indelible Stamp Upon His Race.
