I have been clearing out the papers in my office. Here are some quotations that I have picked up in America; I can’t remember the source.
"The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs." Vance Havner
"Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome." Samuel Johnson
"It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it." Upton Sinclair
"The Universe is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper." E. Pillpotts
"The world will never starve for want of wonders, but only for want of wonder." K. K. Chesterton
"If you do not expect the unexpected you will not find it, for it is not to be reached by search or trial." Heraclitus
