So Long As There Is Breath In

Always Will I Dig For Reasons To Applaud; Never Will I Scratch For Excuses To Gossip. When I Am Tempted To Criticize I Will Bite On My Tongue; When I Am Moved To Praise I Will Shout From The Roofs.

Always Let Your Reach Exceed Your Grasp.

The Prizes Of Life Are At The End Of Each Journey, Not Near The Beginning; And It Is Not Given To Me To Know How Many Steps Are Necessary In Order To Reach My Goal. Failure I May Still Encounter At The Thousandth Step, Yet Success Hides Behind The Next Bend In The Road. Never Will I Know How Close It Lies Unless I Turn The Corner.

There Is An Immeasurable Distance Between Late And Too Late.

Wealth, My Son, Should Never Be Your Goal In Life. Your Words Are Eloquent But They Are Mere Words. True Wealth Is Of The Heart, Not Of The Purse.
