Do not wait for strangers to remind you of your duty. You have a conscience and a spirit for that. All the good you do must come from your own initiative. -The Mayan Codices * Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdaties no doubt crept in, (learn) from them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. Begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. -Emerson
