"Until one is committed there is the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative and creation there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans. The moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would not otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issue from the decision, raising in one's favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no one could have dreamed would come ones way. Whatever you can do or dream you can begin it. Boldness has genius, magic and power. Begin it now!"

Johann Wolfgang von GOETHE 
(1749 - 1832)
