What is the price at victory? Now, there is
an age-old question for us to ponder.
It is said that Robert Louis Stevenson became
a master of English by writing some of his nrees
nine times over. The manuscript pages of Teffiy
son’s poems sometimes have fifty corrections on
a single sheet. Goethe took a lifetime to write
“Faust” and half a lifetime to write Wilhelm
Meister.
To be aware of the efforts of these men in
achieving their greatness teaches us one thing—
everything has a price on it.
Without patience —it can’t be accomplished.
The life that spurns effort is without results and
accomplishments. In other - words—if you will
pay the price you may have it.
The skillful surgeon became so because he
paid the price of preparation. The artist paints
because he painfully learned draftsmanship . . .
on and on we could go—they all paid the price.
OUR THOUGHT TO REMEMBER: “Victory is
never won by the sluggard.”
