VIGILANCE

The neglectfulness that is apt to arise out of the intoxication of achievement is more harmful than even inordinate anger.

Those who are not vigilant cannot attain greatness. This applies to all the orders of life; and all codes accept this conclusion.

To the languid and neglectful, wealth can give no benefit, even as fortification cannot give security to cowards.

There is nothing so loud as vigilance in dealing with everyone and at all times without any lapse.

Watch beforehand. He who is not vigilant will repent later in vain.

Most practical and all-embracing advice and useful to all and applicable to the problems of moral conduct as much as to worldly affairs.
