them to perform.^ The Work of the Geological Survey : a Paper read before the Federated Insti- tution of Mining Engineers.

Who hasn’t stolen, who hasn’t
misused, or hurt, or cursed, who hasn’t gotten even in someone else
the frustration that’s overdue only by you? Who hasn’t tasted the
strength and weakness of someone else and in both cases felt
yourself humiliated or presumptuous without paying attention of the
own value? Who hasn’t hurt or offended someone when being offended
or hurt? But who has eased someone else’s pain when the own heart
is fulfilled with the personal joy? Who has chosen to stay beside
the foreign pain when the own heart is full of fleeting and
individualistic happiness? How many of us haven’t chosen the weight
in the conscience instead of the freedom that lives in the loyalty
and in the truth?
