Risk
When we walk to the edge of all the light we have and take the step into the darkness of the unknown,
we must believe that one of two things will happen.
There will be something solid for us to stand on
or we will be taught to fly.

Why Not
You see things; and you say "Why?"
But I dream things that never
were; and I say "Why not?"
George Bernard Shaw, Back to Methuselah (1921) pt. 1, act 1
Sucess - Original Version
He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved
much; who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of
intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his
niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he
found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued
soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to
express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given them
the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory is a
benediction.
Bessie A. Stanley (b.1879) in _Notes and Queries_ July 1976
