Men will lie on their backs, talking about the fall of man, and never make an effort to get up

It's not enough to be busy. The question is: What are we busy about?

A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance, nor wish it to prevail through the power of the majority. There is but little virtue in the action of masses of men.

We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone, let him be where he will.

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

The effort is ongoing and certainly very aggressive. But we're talking about millions of dollars here.
