Summary

Description	A stylized quote entitled "Fixity of purpose a measure of genius": "The man who succeeds above his fellows is the one who, early in life, clearly discerns his object, and toward that object habitually directs his powers. Even genius itself is but fine observation strengthened by fixity of purpose. Every man who observes vigilantly and resolves steadfastly grows unconsciously into genius."
Date	September 1908
