decency and self-respect and whatever courage is demanded, is to know

The influence of each human being on others in this life is a kind of
immortality. John Quincy Adams

might be defeated, as he sometimes was, but he shrank from no
hardship through impatience, he fled from no danger through cowardice.

A smooth sea never made a skilled mariner. English proverb

It is a fine thing to have ability, but the ability to discover
ability in others is the true test. Elbert Hubbard
