Quotes from the same author
Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we often might win, by fearing to attempt.
Jane Addams

The individual acts promptly, and we are dazzled by his success while only dimly conscious of the inadequacy of his code.
Jane Addams
That person is most cultivated who is able to put himself in the place of the greatest number of other persons.
