*A man once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God. Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby.*
*Surprised, he asked the sculptor "Do you need two statues of the same idol?"* *"No," said the sculptor without looking up, "We need only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage."* *The gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage.* *"Where is the damage?" he asked.* *"There is a scratch on the nose of the idol." said the sculptor, still busy with his work.* *"Where are you going to install the idol?"* *The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar twenty feet high.* *"If the idol is that far, who is going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?" the gentleman asked.* *The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said,"I will know!"* *The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether someone else appreciates it or not. "Excellence" is a drive from inside, not outside.* *Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for our own satisfaction and exhilaration.* * * --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
