“I may have had many projects, but I never was free to carry out any of them. It did me little good to be holding the helm; no matter how strong my hands, the sudden and numerous waves were stronger still, and I was wise enough to yield to them rather than resist them obstinately and make the ship founder. Thus I never was truly my own master but was always ruled by circumstances.” MayLittlesStillsMatterEnoughHandsStrongMy OwnWiseMastersCircumstancesProjectsArmyStrongerWaveShipsYieldFoundersHelm Author:Napoleon Bonaparte
“Let the business of the world take care of itself... My business is to get the world saved; if this involves the standing still of the looms and the shutting up of the factories, and the staying of the sailing of the ships, let them all stand still. When we have got everybody converted they can go on again, and we shall be able to keep things going then by working half time and have the rest to spend in loving one another and worshipping God.” IfsWorldStillsCareAbleHalfGoes OnStandingTake CareSavedShipsStayingFactoriesSailingWorship GodStanding StillHalf Time Author:William Booth
