AS A MAN THINKS.....
You will be what you will be;
Let failure find its false content
In that poor word,"environment,"
But spirit scorns it, and is free.
*****
It masters time,it conquers space;
It cows that boastful trickster, chance,
And bids the tyrant Circumstance
UNcrown, and fill a servant's place.
*****
The human Will, that force unseen,
The offspring of a deathless Soul,
Can hew a way to any goal,
Though walls of granite intervene.
*****
Be not impatient in delay,
But wait as one who understands;
When spirit rises and commands,
The gods are ready to obey.
*****
-James Allen
