The Butterfly’s
Trail •
By Albert Mary Thweatt
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
"A man who acts on impulse may sometimes be laughed at
lor his mistakes, but he will frequently attain to higher things,
and be much better loved by his fellows than the colder, more
calculating logician who rarely makes a blunder.”
—Farnol
