THOUGHT FOR THE DAY.
While in all things we sco or do we are to desire perfection and strive for it, wo are nevertheless not to set the meaner thing in its narrow accomplishment above the nobler thing in its mighty progress. .... Not to prefer mean victory to honourable defeat; not to lower the level of our aim that we may the more surely enjoy the complacency of success. ' -J. fiuskin.
