         <title>I love you for what you are, but I love you yet more for what you are going to be. I love you not so much for your realities as for your ideals. /                    I pray for your desires that they may be great, rather than for your satisfactions, which may be so hazardously little./         A satisfied flower is one whose petals are about to fall. The most beautiful rose is one hardly more than a bud wherein the pangs and ecstasies of desire are working for a larger and finer growth./                                   Not always shall you be what you are now. You are going forward toward something great. I am on the way with you and therefore I love you. </title>
