It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue,
and so to make a few objects beautiful;
but it is far more glorious to carve and
paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look.
To affect the quality of the day -
that is the highest of arts.
"All endeavor calls for the ability to tramp the last mile, shape the last plan, endure the last hours toil. The fight to the finish spirit is the one... characteristic we must posses if we are to face the future as finishers."
"An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day."
"As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler; solitude will not be solitude, poverty will not be poverty, nor weakness weakness."
"Be not simply good - be good for something."
"Do not worry if you have built your castles in the air. They are where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."
"I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor."
"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."
