Quote by w.e.b Du Bois.

“Deserve it, then. Take the cold bath bravely. Enjoy what is and not pine for what is not. Take yourself in hand and master yourself. Make yourself do unpleasant things, so as to gain the upper hand of your soul. Be honest, frank and fearless and get some grasp of the real values of life.”

Bath seems full, and every thing as usual. Your's sincerely.' That is the true manly style; that is a complete brother's letter.”
