The uniform makes for brotherhood, since when universally adopted it covers up all differences of class and country.

The more responsibility the Scoutmaster gives his patrol leaders, the more they will respond.Robert Baden-Powell
Young men, of course, don't want to be guided by old back numbers, but at the same time I know that in my own case I gained a lot by studying the characters of the chiefs under whom I served from time to time. Lord Wolseley, for instance, said 'Use your common sense rather than book instructions.'
Robert Baden-Powell
Yet one more item is needed to complete success, and that is the rendering of service to others in the community. Without this the mere satisfaction of selfish desire does not reach the top notch.
Robert Baden-Powell
A thing that many young fellows don't seem to realize at first is that success depends on oneself and not on a kindly fate, nor on the interest of powerful friends.
Robert Baden-Powell
Happiness is open to all, since, when you boil it down, it merely consists of contentment with what you have got and doing what you can for other people.
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.
