Arthur Conan Doyle quote: "There is a soul-jealousy that can be as frantic as any..."
There is a soul-jealousy that can be as frantic as any body-jealousy. Arthur Conan Doyle
Be yourself; no base imitator of another, but your best self. There is something which you can do better than another. Listen to the inward voice and bravely obey that. Do the things at which you are great, not what you were never made for. Ralph Waldo Emerson
