Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

It must be borne in mind that the tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach.

Just pursue the thought unceasingly. Step by step you will achieve realization, for all your faculties and powers become directed to that end.
