All, all, becomes profitable. Education is of the most satisfying and available nature. I am at Smith! Which two years ago was a doubtful dream - and that fortuitous change of dream to reality has led me to desire more, and to lash myself onward - onward.

About This Quote

Mr. Noble said, "All, all, becomes profitable." You may say this is some sort of wishy-washy cliche, but it isn't. Once you get on the right track, once you get on the right path - it's hard to get off. I know that sounds vague, but it's true. And I've found that people who are willing to work hard and keep working hard are rewarded handsomely for their efforts.
