Power Is the goal Of every worthy
ambition, and only weakness comes
from imitation or dependence on 9th

cannot increase the strength of our
muscles by sitting in a gymnasium and
letting another exercise for us.
Nothing else 30 destroys the power
to stand alone as the habit Of lean
ing upon others. II you lean you will
never be strong or original. Stand
alone or bury your ambition to be
somebody in the world.
The man who tries to give his chill
dren start in the world so that they
will not have so hard time as he had
is unknowingly bringing disaster upon
them. What he calls giving them a
start will probably give them a set
back in the world. Young people
need all the motive power they can
get. They are naturally learners, i'm
itators, copiers. and 1t is easy for
them to develop into echoes or imita-
tions. They will not walk alone while
you furnish crutches: they will lean
upon you just as long as you will let
them.

human being could ever have is that
