He will do little. Is there one who will conquer? That kind of man never fails. - John Hunter (1) He alone has energy that cannot be deprived of it. - Johann Kaspar Lavater (John Caspar Lavater) Strong impulses are but another name for energy. Energy may be turned to bad uses; but more good may always be made of an energetic nature, than of an indolent and impassive one. - John Stuart Mill The shortest and surest way to prove a work possible is strenuously to set about it; and no wonder if that proves it possible that for the most part makes it so. - Bishop Robert South It is unreasonable for us to look for as great a degree of energy in a woman as in a man; energy is quite as much of a physical as a mental product. - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire) Thought and action are the redeeming features of our lives. - Johann Georg von Zimmermann
