Have the courage to be ignorant of a great number of things, in order to avoid the calamity of being ignorant of everything.To do anything in this world worth doing, we must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in, and scramble through as well as we can.
Whatever you are by nature, keep to it; never desert your line of talent. Be what nature intended you for and you will succeed.
Sydney Smith, English essayist (1771 - 1845)
