“A proper autobiography is a death-bed confession. A true man finds so much work to do that he has no time to contemplate his yesterdays; for to-day and to-morrow are here, with their impatient tasks. The world is so busy, too, that it cannot afford to study any man's unfinished work; for the end may prove it a failure, and the world needs masterpieces.” MenWorldNeedsMayEndsStudyBedProveTasksBusyYesterdayContemplatingConfessionAutobiographyMasterpieceImpatientProve ItUnfinishedMorrowTrue ManDeath BedUnfinished Work Book:The Promised Land Source: The Promised Land
