Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from My Life Is an Open Book "We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best. Life is but a means unto an end - that end, Beginning, mean and end to all things - God!" - BAILEY. We never look for any great quantity of fruit from a young tree: The apples may be large and mellow, but they will be few in number. Hence, in order to fill our barrels and bins for winter use, we drive our wagons to the old gnarled trees of the orchard. They have lived through a half century; they wear many a scar; and the clubs and stones lodged in the branches, show that they have had rough treatment; but with their long roots, huge trunks, sturdy boughs, and millions of leaves - they gather from year to year enormous stores of the crude material from which to make blossoms and fruit. And yet, it is among the green branches of the young tree that we search for the largest and juciest apples. And so it is with men: It generally requires long years and a broad experience to produce any very fruitful life.
