"Although
I know that it is heresy to suggest such an idea in the midst of an age
of progress, it may be that ultimate truth lies in the spiritual
attitude of those who are always going fishing. A person who has
achieved an immunity from the everlasting inner demand that he improve
upon his earthly position must possess an unusual degree of cosmic
equilibrium. He must have learned in some way that composure of the
human spirit is all that actually matters. He has attained, without
conscious effort, the serenity for which all men(and women) strive."
--Clarence Cason (1898-1935)
