    The best verse hasn't been rhymed yet,
    The best house hasn't been planned,
    The highest peak hasn't been climbed yet,
    The mightiest rivers aren't spanned;
    Don't worry and fret, faint-hearted,
    The chances have just begun
    For the best jobs haven't been started,
    The best work hasn't been done.
