The first and basic index of maturity is the ability to think in principles. Next is emotional stability. Self confidence is confidence in one s mind. Man controls his mind s activity and growth by the goals he sets for it, the assignments he gives to it. A man cannot think through the mind of another.
Life is growth in all senses.
Every achievement is a stepping stone to a greater achievement. Man feels an intense need to find human beings he can admire, to find a spiritual equal he can love. Every fault you see in others touches a denied weakness in yourself. Darkness however terrible, never fully extinguishes the spark of light. To love another person means opening up your whole being.
