A miser sacrifices all to his single passion; hoards farthings and dies possessed of wealth. Do you wish to master any science or accomplishment? Give yourself to it and it lies beneath your feet. Time and pains will do anything. This world is given as the prize for the men in earnest; and that which is true of this world is truer still of the world to come.

  Frederick William Robertson

No me gustan las cosas a medias. Prefiero tener una facultad noblemente desarrollada que dos facultades de mera capacidad ordinaria.
