Do no pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for power equal to your tasks. There are deep wells of strength that are never used. Only one feat is possible - not to have run away. Only the weak are intent on giving as good as they get.
Strong convictions precede great actions.
There are deep wells of strength that are never used. When you are required to exhibit strength, it comes. The loss of these tastes is a loss of happiness, and may possibly be injurious to the intellect, and more probably to the moral character, by enfeebling the emotional part of our nature. For strength to bear is found in duty alone, and he is blest indeed who learns to make the joy of others cure his own heartache. If there is any responsibility in the cycle of life it must be that one generation owes to the next that strength by which it can come to face ultimate concerns in its own way.
