George Manville Fenn...you never knows where a spark may drop and a fire begin to run.
About This Quote
I believe that it is very important to be open-minded and to have a healthy respect for your fellow human being. You never knows where a spark – a tiny little thing – may drop and a fire – a great big thing – may start to run. These words of wisdom were spoken by the American president Theodore Roosevelt. He was talking about the importance of accepting change, or even something as small as a cat or dog crossing your path. When an event happens that you have not been expecting, it is good to be able to see it as something wonderful, rather than something terrible.
