In doing what we ought we deserve no praise, because it is our duty. ~ Joseph Addison
But what is your duty? What the day demands. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
How
can we know ourselves? Never by reflection, but only through action.
Begin at once to do your duty and immediately you will know what is
inside you. ~ Goethe
Non nobis solum nati sumus. (Not for ourselves alone are we born.) ~ Cicero
Life
is made up, not of great sacrifices or duties, but of little things, in
which smiles, and kindnesses, and small obligations, given habitually,
are what win and preserve the heart and secure comfort. ~ Humphrey
Davy
