Three men were laying brick. The first was asked:
"What are you doing?"
He answered: ""Laying some brick."
The second man was asked: "What are you working for?"
He answered: "Five dollars a day." The third man was asked:
"What are you doing?" He answered:
"I am helping to build a great cathedral."
Which man are you?

Teach self-denial and make its practice pleasure,
and you can create for the world a destiny more sublime
that ever issued from the brain of the wildest dreamer.
- Sir Walter Scott
Whatever task you undertake, do it with all
your heart and soul.
Always be courteous, never be discouraged.
Beware of him who promises something for nothing.
Do not blame anybody for your mistakes and failures.
Do not look for approval except the consciousness of doing your best.
- Bernard M. Baruch
We can secure other people’s approval if
we do right and try hard; but our own is worth a hundred of it,
and no way has been found out of securing that.
- Mark Twain
The most beautiful thing we can experience
is the mysterious.
It is the source of all art and science.
He to whom this emotion is a stranger,
who can no longer pause to wonder and stand
rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.
Those who stand for nothing fall for anything.
- Alexander Hamilton
Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom.
One can find it, live it, be fortified by it,
do wonders through it,
but one cannot communicate and teach it.
