Twixt what thou art and what thou wouldst be, let No if arise on which to lay the blame. Man makes a mountain of that puny word, But, like a blade of grass before the scythe. It falls and withers when a human will. Stirred by creative force, sweeps towards its aim. Thou wilt be what thou couldst be. Circumstance Is but the toy of genius. When a Soul Bums with a God-like purpose to achieve, All obstacles between it and its goal Must vanish as the dew before the sun. If is the motto of the dilettante And idle dreamer: tis the poor excuse Of mediocrity. The truly great Know not the word, or know it but to scorn; Else had Joan of Arc a peasant died Uncrowned by glory and by men unsung. Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
