" "There are many kinds of success in life worth having. It is exceedingly interesting
and attractive to be a successful businessman, or railway man, or farmer, or
a successful lawyer or doctor; or a writer, or a President, or a ranchman, or the
colonel of a fighting regiment, or to kill grizzly bears and lions. But for unflagging
interest and enjoyment, a household of children, if things go reasonably well,
certainly makes all other forms of success and achievement lose their importance
by comparison.
