"There is no such
thing as a
'self-made'
man. We
are made up of
thousands of others.
Everyone who has
ever done a kind
deed for us, or
spoken one word of
encouragement to us,
has entered into the
make-up of our
character and of our
thoughts, as well as
our
success."
[GEORGE BURTON
ADAMS] |

"It is in the character
of very few men to
honor without envy a

character and values, the secret that you know and no one else does, the

"It is the characteristic
excellence of the strong man that he can bring momentous issues to the
