(A Toast To The Men)
More Quotes from Edgar Albert Guest:
Who does his task from day to day and meets whatever comes his way, Believing God has willed it so, has found real greatness here below. Who guards his post, no matter where, believing God must need him there, Although but lowly toil it be, has risen to nobility. For great and low theres just one test, tis that each man shall do his best, Who works with all the strength he can, shall never die in debt to man.Edgar Albert Guest
It matters not what goal you seek Its secret here reposes You've got to dig from week to week To get Results or Roses.

THE THINGS THAT HAVENT BEEN DONE BEFORE The things that havent been done before, Those are the things to try Columbus dreamed of an unknown shore At the rim of the far-flung sky, And his heart was bold and his faith was strong As he ventured in dangers new, And he paid no heed to the jeering throng Or the fears of the doubting crew. The things that havent been done before, Are the tasks worthwhile today Are you one of the flock that follows, or Are you one that shall lead the way Are you one of the timid souls that quail At the jeers of a doubting crew, Or dare you, whether you win or fail, Strike out for a goal thats new.

Be a friend. You dont need money Just a disposition sunny Just the wish to help another Get along some way or other Just a kindly had extended Out to one whos unbefriended Just the will to give or lend, This will make you someones friend. Be a friend. You dont need glory. Friendship is a simple story. Pass by trifling errors blindly, Gaze on honest effort kindly, Cheer the youth whos bravely trying, Pity him whos sadly sighing Just a little labor spend On the duties of a friend. Be a friend. The pay is bigger (Though not written by a figure) Tan is earned by people clever In whats merely self-endeavor. Youll have friends instead of neighbors For the profits of your labors Youll be richer in the end Than a prince, if youre a friend.

Two arms, two hands, two legs, two eyes, And a brain to use if you would be wise. With this equipment they all began, So start for the top and say, 'I can.' You are the handicap you must face, You are the one who must choose your place, You must say where you want to go, How much you will study the truth to know. God has equipped you for life, but He Lets you decide what you want to be... Courage must come from the soul within, The man must furnish the will to win. So figure it out for yourself, my lad, You were born with all that the great have had, With your equipment they all began. Get hold of yourself, and say 'I can'.

If you don't want to have to kill or capture every bad guy in the country, you have to reintegrate those who are willing to be reconciled and become part of the solution instead of a continued part of the problem.
