More Quotes from Robert Baden-Powell:
'Softly, softly, catchee monkey,' is the West African rendering of a very valuable precept. An awful lot of men fail through lack of patient persistence.Robert Baden-Powell
Mind you, I have had in my sojourn on earth as good a time of it as any man, so I can speak with some knowledge. A writer in the Manchester Guardian who is unknown to me lately described me as 'the richest man in the world.' That sounds a pretty big order, but when I come to think it out I believe he is not far wrong. A rich man is not necessarily a man with a whole pot of money but a man who is really happy. And I am that.
