• Failure, then, failure! so the world stamps us at every turn. We strew it with our blunders, our misdeeds, our lost opportunities, with all the memorials of our inadequacy to our vocation. And with what a damning emphasis does it then blot us out!

The subtlest forms of suffering known to man are connected with the poisonous humiliations incidental to these results.
