Quote: David Livingston

Posted by joncooper

Then there’s the story of David Livingston. Livingston single-handedly explored almost all of Africa. A missionary society wrote and asked if he had found any good roads. They said, if he had, they wanted to send some missionaries. Livingston wrote back and said that if they “… had men who would come only if there’s a good road, I don’t want them. I want men who will come if they know there is no road at all.”
