The Mill Cannot Grind With The Water

The Lack Of Opportunity Is Ever The Excuse Of A Weak, Vacillating Mind. Opportunities! Every Life Is Full Of Them. Every Newspaper Article Is An Opportunity. Every Client Is An Opportunity. Every Sermon Is An Opportunity. Every Business Transaction Is An Opportunity, An Opportunity To Be Polite, An Opportunity To Be Manly, An Opportunity To Be Honest, An Opportunity To Make Friends.

Life Is Not Mean, It Is Grand; If It Is Mean To Any, He Or She Makes It So. God Made It Glorious. It Is Paved With Diamonds; Its Banks He Fringed With Flowers. He Overarched It With Stars. Around It He Spread The Glory Of The Physical Universe-suns, Moon, Worlds, Constellations, Systems-all That Is Magnificent In Motion, Sublime In Magnitude, And Grand In Order And Obedience. God Would Not Have Attended Life With This Broad March Of Grandeur If It Did Not Mean Something.

We Make The World We Live In And Shape Our Own Environment.

If We Get The Good That Belongs To Us Here And Now, We Must Extract The Sweetness Of Each Passing Minute While It Is Ours. That Is The Real Art Of Living In The Today.

Opportunity Is Coy, Is Swift, Is Gone, Before The Slow, The Unobservant, The Indolent, Or The Careless Can Seize Her.
