We listened, as all boys in their better moods will listen (ay, and men too for the matter of that), to a man whom we felt to be, with all his heart and soul and strength, striving against whatever was mean and unmanly and unrighteous in our little world. It was not the cold, clear voice of one giving advice and warning from serene heights to those who were struggling and sinning below, but the warm, living voice of one who was fighting for us and by our sides, and calling on us to help him and ourselves and one another. ↗

You’ve got to lick yourself into shape. Nobody can do it for you. The man who dreams of artistry, and yet thinks it is necessary for somebody else to lick him into shape, is a man whose art is doomed to be mediocre. Please believe me, this is not harshness on my part: it is the harshness of the nature of the game that I am exposing to you. If you are going to deliver the real goods, you’ve got to do your own licking into shape. ↗
