"Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen ... others make it happen.

Some people dream of worthy accomplishments, while others stay awake and do them.

Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action."

– Benjamin Disraeli, 1804-1881, British Statesman, Prime Minister
