"If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need."
-Cicero-
Education
" Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the things that you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not."
-Thomas Huxley-
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
To win without risk is to triumph without glory.
Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far they can go.
Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.
- William Jennings Bryan -
All glory comes from daring to begin.
- Eugene F. Ware -
One of the strongest characteristics of genius is the power of lighting its own fire.
