| Quote of the moment |
| But seldom the laurel wreath is seen Unmixed with pensive pansies dark; There’s a light and a shadow on every man Who at last attains his lifted mark— Nursing through night the ethereal spark. Elate he never can be; He feels that spirits which glad had hailed his worth, Sleep in oblivion.—The shark Glides white through the phosphorus sea. |

| Quote of the moment |
| The weakling and the coward are out of place in a strong and free community. In a republic like ours the governing class is composed of the strong men who take the trouble to do the work of government; and if you are too timid or too fastidious or too careless to do your part in this work, then you forfeit your right to be considered one of the governing and you become one of the governed instead—one of the driven cattle of the political arena. |
| ~ President THEODORE ROOSEVELT, address at the Harvard Union, Cambridge, Massachusetts, February 23, 1907.—“Athletics, Scholarship and Public Service,” The Strenuous Life (vol. 13 of The Works of Theodore Roosevelt, national ed.), chapter 27, p. 563 (1926). ~ |

| O'er bog or steep, through strait, rough, dense, or rare, With head, hands, wings, or feet, pursues his way, And swims or sinks, or wades, or creeps, or flies. |

| Life at any time can become difficult: life at any time can become easy. It all depends upon how one adjusts oneself to life. |
