TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
You can’t convince an average man that he Isn’t a little above the average. Take advantage of your opportunities, bat don't “take advantage” of them. He who knows how to make much of little generally has something to spire. It seldom requires a very strong levee to withstand a flood of generosity. When you begin to suspect a fault in yourself you may be sure it is quite plain to others. Host of ns feed that we could have done great things if it hadn’t been for the little things. Sometimes when you say a writer Is beyond his depth, it simply means ha is beyond your depth.
