“I Shall Pass This Way But Once; Any Good That I Can Do Or Any Kindness I Can Show To Any Human Being, Let Me Do It Now. Let Me Not Defer Nor Neglect It, For I Shall Not Pass This Way Again”.




The following Text is from Wikiquote.

The above quote is ascribed to Stephen Grellet (see, below), but this is disputed by some people.

Stephen Grellet (2 November 177316 November 1855) was a prominent Quaker missionary. Born Etienne de Grellet du Mabillier, son to a Counsellor of King Louis XVI, at 17, he entered the King’s Body-Guard.

During The French Revolution of 1792, he was sentenced to be executed, but escaped and eventually fled Europe to The United States in 1795, where, in 1796, he joined The Religious Society of Friends (The Quakers).
