Character Is Undergoing Constant Change, For Better Or For Worse--either Being Elevated On The One Hand, Or Degraded On The Other.

It Is Natural To Admire And Revere Really Great Men. They Hallow The Nation To Which They Belong, And Lift Up Not Only All Who Live In Their Time, But Those Who Live After Them. Their Great Example Becomes The Common Heritage Of Their Race; And Their Great Deeds And Great Thoughts Are The Most Glorious Legacies Of Mankind.

He Who Recognizes No Higher Logic Than That Of The Shilling May Become A Very Rich Man, And Yet Remain All The While An Exceedingly Poor Creature; For Riches Are No Proof Whatever Of Moral Worth, And Their Glitter Often Serves Only To Draw Attention To The Worthlessness Of Their Possessor, As The Glow-worm's Light Reveals The Grub.

It Is The Close Observation Of Little Things Which Is The Secret Of Success In Business, In Art, In Science, And In Every Pursuit Of Life.
