Text Appearing Before Image:
d work and standOn Lifes broad deck alert, and at the prowTo seize the passing moment, big with fate, ^ From opportunitys extended hand,When the great clock of destiny strikes Now! Mary A. Townsend.Once to every man and nation comes the moment to decide.In the strife of Truth with Falsehood, for the good or evil side. Lowell.What is opportunity to a man who cant use it ? An unfecundated egg,which the waves of time wash away into nonentity. — George Eliot.A thousand years a poor man watched Before the gate of Paradise:But while one little nap he snatched,It oped and shut. Ah ! was he wise ? W. R. Alger. Our grand business is, not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but todo what lies clearly at hand. — Carlyle. A mans best things are nearest him.Lie close about his feet. R. M. Milnes.The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready/or his opportii-nity when it comes. — Disraeli. There are no longer any good chances for youngmen, complained a law student to Daniel Webster.
Text Appearing After Image:
THOMAS JEFFERSOM,■The workl is all gates, all opportunities to liini who can use them. T is never offered twice, seize then the hourWhen fortune smiles and dutj- points the way. OPPORTUNITIES WHERE YOU ARE. 257 There is always room at the top/ replied the greatlawyer. No chance, no opportunities, in a land where manypoor boys become rich men, where newsboys go to Con-gress, and where those born in the lowest stations at-tain the highest positions ? The world is all gates, allopportunities to him who will use them. But, likeBunyans Pilgrim in the dungeon of Giant Despairscastle, who had the key of deliverance all the time withhim but had forgotten it, we fail to rely wholly uponthe ability to advance all that is good for us which hasbeen given to the weakest as well as the strongest.We depend too much upon outside assistance. We look too highFor things close by. A Baltimore lady lost a valuable diamond bracelet ata ball, and supposed that it was stolen from the pocketof her cloak. Ye
