"It is said that every word whispered into the air starts vibrations which will quiver on and on forever in space. The same is true also of influences which go out from our lives in the commonest days, they — will go on forever." "Nothing is small which helps you along the line of your career, which broadens your horizon, which deepens your experience, which makes you more efficient in the great work of life. No matter how trivial any duty may seem, if it adds in the slightest way to your efficiency, it ceases to be trivial."
