Every person, every race, every nation, has its own particular keynote which it brings to the general chord of life and of humanity.

No soul that aspires can ever fail to rise; no heart that loves can ever be abandoned. Difficulties exist only that in overcoming them we may grow strong, and they who have suffered are able to save.
