How could you be a Great Man if history brought you no Great Events, or brought you to them at the wrong time, too young, too old?
I am not young enough to know everything.

We can be sure that the greatest hope for maintaining equilibrium in the face of any situation rests within ourselves.
In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary.
There is no stigma attached to recognizing a bad decision in time to install a better one.
