“There is one elementary truth-
The ignorance of which kills
Countless ideas and splendid plans;
The moment one definitely commits oneself,
Then Providence moves too.
All sorts of things occur to help one that
Never otherwise would have occurred…
Whatever you can do,
Or dream you can do,
Begin it.
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Begin it now.”
