“What matter how the wind may blow,
Since fair or foul alike are best?
God holds them in his hand, I know,
And I will leave to him the rest,
Assured that neither calm nor gale
Can bring me danger or delay,
As still I toward the haven sail
That lies, I know, not far away.” GCB April 10, 1901, page 169.2
Better is it to have a small portion of good sense, with humility and a slender understanding, than great treasures of science with vain self-complacency. -Thomas a Kempis. GCB April 10, 1901, page 169.3
