The human body has two ends on it:
one to create with and one to sit on.
Sometimes people get their ends reversed.
When this happens they need a kick in the seat of the pants.
You may think it was a very little thing,
and in these days it seems to me like a trifle,
but it was a most important incident in my life.
I could scarcely credit that I, the poor boy,
had earned a dollar in less than a day;
that by honest work, I had earned a dollar.
I was a more hopeful and thoughtful boy from that time.
Act only according to that maxim whereby you can,
at the same time,
will that it should become a universal law.
If there is not the war,
you don't get the great general;
if there is not a great occasion,
you don't get a great statesman;
if Lincoln had lived in a time of peace,
no one would have known his name.
It stands to the everlasting credit of science
that by acting on the human mind
it has overcome man's insecurity
before himself and before nature.
Far better is it to dare mighty things,
to win glorious triumphs,
even though checkered by failure...
than to rank with those poor spirits
who neither enjoy nor suffer much,
because they live in a gray twilight
that knows not victory nor defeat.
My message,
especially to young people is to have courage to think differently,
courage to invent,
to travel the unexplored path, courage to discover the impossible
and to conquer the problems and succeed.
These are great qualities that they must work towards.
This is my message to the young people.
If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more,
learn more,
do more and become more,
then you are an excellent leader.
