"I learned that he that will be a hero will barely be a man; that he that will be nothing but a doer of his work is sure of his manhood."

I will be a man among men; and no longer a dreamer among shadows. Henceforth be mine a life of action and reality! I will work in my own sphere, nor wish it other than it is. This alone is health and happiness.

— Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
