It must be born in mind that the tragedy of life doesn’t lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in not having a goal to reach for. It isn’t a calamity to die with dreams unfulfilled, but it is a calamity not to dream. It is not disaster to be unable to capture your ideal, but it is disaster to have no ideal to capture. It is not a disgrace not to reach the stars, but it is a disgrace to have no stars to reach for. Not failure, but low aim is sin.
– Dr. Benjamin Mays.
To streamline your dream, conquer your vices, rein-in your excesses and understand your limitations. To project your graces, magnify your renown and live for the good of mankind. And to have the heavens and earth, tides and gust, men and gods bear witness, this and only this is the purpose of life.
