endowment he has, and uses it until he bleeds.
Quote By Martin H. Fischer~Inspirational self quote

movements and changes in the world about him. Then there comes a
time when it lies within his grasp to shape the clay of his life
into the sort of thing he wishes to be. Only the weak blame
parents, their race, their times, lack of good fortune, or the
quirks of fate. Everyone has it within his power to say, This I am
today; that I will be tomorrow.
