“The Few”
Albert Einstein during the war years said, "Times such as ours breed defeat and despair. But there remain, nevertheless, some few among us who believe, who meet and overcome even the greatest challenges of this time. If we want to avoid defeat, we must know the truth and be courageous enough to act upon it, and we need not despair."
The easy roads are crowded,And the level roads are jammed;The pleasant little riversWith the drifting folks are crammed.But off yonder where it’s rocky,Where you get a better view,You will find the ranks are thinningAnd the travelers are few.
Where the going’s smooth and pleasantYou will always find the throng,For the man, more’s the pity, Seem to like to drift along.But the steeps that call for courage,And the task that’s hard to do,In the end result in glory
For the never-wavering few
