Count only that man lost who has lost faith in himself. Until that happens, no game is over, no score is final. The biggest success stories are of men who came back after the rest of the world forgot. No man knows exactly the measure of faith in his own self, until he is called upon to draw on it, as he does on an account at the bank.
At such a time, many a man is amazed to discover how small a credit he rates with his own self; how slim is his trust in his own soul. It takes more than a solemn look in a mirror and a deep resolve, to plant faith and trust in a man's own being. Like the other seed which has its roots in the soil, it takes many an hour of hard toil. But like that other, once its roots are firmly imbedded, no storm is so great, no wind so strong, that it can dislodge them. And, the man who has such seeds of faith in himself has a weapon against which all of the vicissitudes of time and trial are little more than another storm in the life of a stout oak.
