“The gratification comes in the doing, not in the results.”
“Gratification comes when you help someone else.”
“You may never know what results come of your actions, but if you do nothing, there will be no results.”
“It is in doing things and not reading about them that results come about.”
“I mean that you always know what results will come from one or another of your actions; but in a strange way you want to do one thing and get the result that could only come from another”
“Too old to plant trees for my own gratification, I shall do it for my posterity.”
