...Very often the seeds of the fields fall on rough and infertile soil, and it is a wonderful and miraculous thing how these little seeds struggle for life even in a most unfortunate environment...
...The rugged pine tree on the side of a cliff has dug its roots into every crack and crevice, and may in time even break the rock in its effort to survive...
...People who are doing something important are subject to disappointments and momentary discouragements, but if the spirit is strong, they rise above these temporary delays and continue on their way...
...We are the one small area in time and space that we can control, and our best chance of success is to control this area, to make it what we want it to be so far as possible, always assuming that our desires are constructive..
