Excellence

An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made, in a narrow field.

An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less.

Excellence can be attained if you . . .;* Care more than others think is wise;* Risk more than others think is safe;* Dream more than others think is pratical;* Expect more than others think is possible.
