“The greatest of all warriors in the siege of Troy
had not the pre-eminence because nature had given strength and he carried the
largest bow, but because self-discipline had taught him how to bend it.”—U.S.
Senator, statesman and orator Daniel Webster (1782-1852) quoted in The
World’s Laconics: or, The Best Thoughts of the Best Authors, edited by
Everard Berkeley (1853)
