Having toured around the block a few times, I’ve found that one saying does not do it. No, I have a diverse orientation that requires quotes for the occasion. Here are some of the words I have lived by:
“Better to sleep with a sober cannibal than a drunken Christian.”
Herman Melville
“Let’s jump on board, and cut them to pieces.”
Blackbeard
“Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety-nine percent perspiration.”
Thomas A. Edison
“Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.” – Vincent Van Gogh
Have a great day. And always remember: “The thermometer of success is merely the jealousy of the malcontents.” – Salvador Dali
