“He who is ever brooding over result often loses nerve in the performance of his duty. He becomes impatient and then gives vent to anger and begins to do unworthy things; he jumps from action to action never remaining faithful to any.

into your pocket, and you will realise the truth of what I write. Every one
must spin.”
