Men Whose Acts Are At

The Great High-road Of Human Welfare Lies Along The Old Highway Of Steadfast Welldoing; And They Who Are The Most Persistent, And Work In The Truest Spirit, Will Invariably Be The Most Successful.

Though An Inheritance Of Acres May Be Bequeathed, An Inheritance Of Knowledge And Wisdom Cannot. The Wealthy Man May Pay Others For Doing His Work For Him; But It Is Impossible To Get His Thinking Done For Him By Another, Or To Purchase Any Kind Of Self-culture.

The Crown And Glory Of Life Is Character. It Is The Noblest Possession Of A Man, Constituting A Rank In Itself, And An Estate In The General Good-will; Dignifying Every Station, And Exalting Every Position In Society. It Exercises A Greater Power Than Wealth, And Secures All The Honor Without The Jealousies Of Fame. It Carries With It An Influence Which Always Tell; For It Is The Result Of Proved Honor, Rectitude, And Consistency-qualities Which, Perhaps More Than Any Other, Command The General Confidence And Respect Of Mankind.

Self-respect Is The Noblest Garment With Which A Man Can Clothe Himself, The Most Elevating Feeling With Which The Mind Can Be Inspired.

The Battle Of Life Is, In Most Cases, Fought Uphill; And To Win It Without A Struggle Were Perhaps To Win It Without Honor. If There Were No Difficulties There Would Be No Success; If There Were Nothing To Struggle For, There Would Be Nothing To Be Achieved.
