Every successful man or great genius has three particular qualities in common. The most conspicuous of these is that they all produce a prodigious amount of work. The second is that they never know fatigue. And the third is that their minds grow more brilliant as they grow older, instead of less brilliant.

Nor can power be thus acquired, for the weakness of the despoiled will prevail against the might of the despoiler.
