I grew up and I became very successful at what I did as a young man. I became a work addict because this was the only way I could get any relief from this pain. ↗

The best rules to form a young man, are, to talk little, to hear much, to reflect alone upon what has passed in company, to distrust one's own opinions, and value others that deserve it. ↗
