There's More To A Man Than Meets the Eye
The story is told of a poor woman who went to a saloon in search of her husband. She found him there, and setting a covered dish, which she had brought with her, upon the table, she said, “Thinking that you are too busy to come home to dinner, I have brought you yours,” and departed. With a laugh the man invited his friends to dine with him; but on removing the cover from the dish he found only a slip of paper, on which was written, “I hope you will enjoy your meal. It is the same as your family have at home.”
Look for More Than Just Good Looks. Look for more than just a “CG” = “A Cute Guy.”
In June 1955, Winston Churchill, who was then near the end of his life, was asked to give a commencement address at a British University. At this time he was physically infirm; he had to be helped to the podium. Then he held on to the podium for what seemed an interminable amount of time. He stood with his head down but then finally raised that great leonine head of his, and the voice that years before had called Britain back from the brink of destruction sounded publicly for the last time in history.
“Never give up. Never give up. Never give up.” With that, Churchill turned and went back to his seat. I’m told there was silence, and then, as if one person, the whole audience rose to applaud him, because he was a man whose life and words were together. Again and again throughout Churchill’s political career, he had known setbacks. Three times, his career apparently was over, he was sent off to oblivion, and yet somehow he had a sense that there was still something left after the worst.
