Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows.

No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or open a new heaven to the human spirit.

I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.
