AU men have a love of pow er b u t n o t an equal cap acity to g ra tify It.
P ow er is som ething m ore th a n m ere e n e rg y ; It Is a d irected force.
W h ate v er tension th e steam gauge on a locom otive m ay show th e engine
Is a lifeless th in g w ith o u t a brain-guided band to move Its th ro ttle.
Pow er Is force u n d e r control. T h e w a te rfa ll is w asted e n e rg y ;
h arn essed to a w heel i t produces m ill pow er.
C o n cen tratio n is th e secret of pow er. H itch y o u r energy to some
fixed purpose.
T o be noble is to be pow erful. N egative goodness Is never a con
trib u tin g goodness; positive goodness Is. P ositive goodness h as purpose.
E nergy p u t to pu rpose Is pow er.
T h is w orld a lw a y s m akes way fo r th e m an of p o w er an d h e m akes
room fo r m any. So does real pow er d ire c t fo r good.
T h e men of g re a te st pow er a re they w ho give to th e w orld a

N apoleon w as g re a t because be d irected h is pow er to m ake him self

So It la th a t they who have th e m ost pow er in th e » jr id a re they

Pow er can n o t have too g en tle a n expression, fo r its opponent Is
