| It has been a long day. I find myself withdrawing, and it not being appreciated. Here are somethings that hopefully will make you all realize some aspect of me. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit. - Aristotle Hold yourself for a higher standard than anyone else expects of you. - Henry Ward Beecher All things excellent are as difficult as they are rare. (16th century philosopher) - Benedict Spinoza It's only those who are persistent, and willing to study things deeply, who achieve the Master Work. (from The Alchemist) - Paul Coelho One that desires to excel should endeavor in those things that are in themselves most excellent. - Epictetus And finally... There is no excellency without difficulty. - Ovid |
