I like this attitude, Oscar.
Here is something from the Letters to the editor section of, The Globe and
Mail, Toronto, dated 12th Oct, 2009.

Was Obama worthy?
Making a promise is an act. Saying “I do” in a wedding binds you, changes
your status. In that sense, Barack Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize is for his
actions.
But Mr. Obama does not control others’ actions. Whether any leader’s actions
are fulfilled cannot be determined just by him, but by the people.
Mr. Obama has made the promises that we wanted the world’s most powerful
man to make. It is up to us to decide whether they will be fulfilled. I thank
the
Nobel committee for recognizing Mr. Obama, whose pledge commits us to a
higher course of action.
Metta Spencer, Toronto

How about this from the social studies section, same paper, same date.

Thought du jour
“For a long time it has seemed to me that life was about to begin – Real Life.
But
there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be got through first,
some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid – then
life
would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.”
– Alfred D'Souza
