Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich HegelWhat is rational is actual and what is actual is rational. On this conviction the plain man like the philosopher takes his stand,and from it philosophy starts in its study of the universe of mind as well as the universe of nature.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich HegelTruth in philosophy means that concept and external reality correspond.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich HegelWe assert then that nothing has been accomplished without interest on the part of the actors; and — if interest be called passion, inasmuch as the whole individuality, to the neglect of all other actual or possible interests and claims, is devoted to an object with every fibre of volition, concentrating all its desires and powers upon it — we may affirm absolutely that nothing great in the World has been accomplished without passion.
