My meaning simply is, that whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do well; that whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself to completely; that in great aims and in small I have always been thoroughly in earnest… There is no substitute for thoroughgoing, ardent, and sincere earnestness.
 ( - “David Copperfield,” Charles Dickens)
