There is only one best conduct of
life for you. and that is the one that
is best for you. Those who wander
aimlessly in quest óf' the single right
formula for existence grope in a maze
through which they must thread their
way endlessly in search of the center
which does not exist.
There is no one recipe which will
serve for all mankind. Each must
learn not his neighbor's but his own
best way of living. To one it may be
the routine task, the daily round, to
curb the wandering will and bring con
tent. To another it may be the forth
tude to escape the sheltering care of
habit or the lassitude of sloth. To one
it should be the abandonment of phi
losophy Or introspection to rub elbows
with his fellow men; to another, the
willingness to let the soul awaken and
breathe amid the sky rimmed prarie
and under the deathless stars; to one,
hearthstone and slippers; to another,
the seven seas, the aurora borealis and
the Southern Cross; to one, society;
to another, solitude; to one, the quiet
which stills the passions; to another,
the eternal restlessness which brings
achievement.

Thriftlessness seldom if over is able

What men call luck generally is a
combination of foresight, industry,
pluck and thrift in’the lucky man.
