"Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying
to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may
end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I
shall have the belief that I can do it. I shall surely acquire the
capacity to do it, even if I may not have it at the beginning."
Mahatma Gandhi
1869-1948, Indian Nationalist Leader
