Patience is more that a virtue; it’s a lifesaver

October 10, 1911
Jasper Newton “Jack” Daniel was the distiller and the founder of the Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey company. He was known as an impatient man; he wouldn’t wait for anything.

One day, coming to work early, he was unable to open his safe, having trouble remembering the combination. In frustration he kicked it, injuring his toe. The toe became infected and he died of blood poisoning on this day.

And so it goes
