sense of the way to do things. They have not been content with mediocrity.
They have not confined themselves to the beaten tracks; they have never
been satisfied to do things just as others so them, but always a little
better. They always pushed things that came to their hands a little higher
up, this little farther on, that counts in the quality of life"s work. It
is constant effort to be first-class in everything one attempts that
conquers the heights of excellence." | |

Seeking shall find Him." | |
