I believe in trusting. Trust begets trust. Suspicion is foetid and only stinks. He who trusts has never yet lost in the world.

Men flocked to see it and ascended it as it was a novelty and of unique dimensions. It was the toy of the exhibition. So long as we are children we are attracted by toys, and the tower was a good demonstration of the fact that we are all children attracted by trinkets. That may be claimed to be the purpose served by the Eiffel Tower.

Uzmi osmeh i
daruj ga onome ko ga nikad nije imao.

Uzmi zrak sunca i
učini da odleti tamo gde vlada noć.

Otkrij izvor i
okupaj onoga ko živi u blatu.

Uzmi suzu i
položi je na lice onoga ko nikad nije plakao.

Uzmi hrabrost i
stavi je u dušu onoga ko se ne sme boriti.

Otkrij život i
pripovedaj o njemu onome ko ga ne može shvatiti.

Uzmi nadu i
živi u njenoj svetlosti.

Uzmi dobrotu i
daruj je onome ko ne zna darivati.

Otkrij ljubav i
pokaži je čitavom svetu.

There is an incident which occurred at the examination during my first year at the high school and which is worth recording. Mr. Giles, the Educational Inspector, had come on a visit of inspection. He had set us five words to write as a spelling exercise. One of the words was 'kettle'. I had mis-spelt it. The teacher tried to prompt me with the point of his boot, but I would not be prompted. It was beyond me to see that he wanted me to copy the spelling from my neighbour's slate, for I had thought that the teacher was there to supervise us against copying. The result was that all the boys, except myself, were found to have spelt every word correctly. Only I had been stupid. The teacher tried later to bring this stupidity home to me, but without effect. I never could learn the art of 'copying'.
