Water of obstacles shapes enduring strength
From September Success. It is only where there is obstruction that the waters become deep and reflecting. Shallow brooks run notably by. Great streams, where their course is made easy, pause not to collect depth and silence. A life may flow gently to its close, but it never becomes great because of its ease. Obstacles, dirties, sorrows, discouragements dam up the soul's precious waters, and from the silliness of its deeps the voice of Emerson, a Carlyle, a Shakespeare speaks to us.
