<span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.6em;">Current favorite quote: "I do not fear not being successful, I fear not being great"</span>

<span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.6em;">Current favorite poem:</span>

<span style="font-size:large;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.2em; color: rgb(0, 0, 205); font-family: NotoSans, Verdana, Calibri, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-variant: small-caps;">Good Timber by Douglas Malloch</span></span>

The tree that never had to fight<br/>For sun and sky and air and light,<br/>But stood out in the open plain<br/>And always got its share of rain,<br/>Never became a forest king<br/>But lived and died a scrubby thing.

The man who never had to toil<br/>To gain and farm his patch of soil,<br/>Who never had to win his share<br/>Of sun and sky and light and air,<br/>Never became a manly man<br/>But lived and died as he began.

Good timber does not grow with ease:<br/>The stronger wind, the stronger trees;<br/>The further sky, the greater length;<br/>The more the storm, the more the strength.<br/>By sun and cold, by rain and snow,<br/>In trees and men good timbers grow.

Where thickest lies the forest growth,<br/>We find the patriarchs of both.<br/>And they hold counsel with the stars<br/>Whose broken branches show the scars<br/>Of many winds and much of strife.<br/>This is the common law of life.
