Harness Quotes

“- J’aidais justement Ghezumi et Kassergh à bâter l’hypocras : du vin au miel avec de la cannelle et du gingembre mélangé à du musc, de l’ambre gris, de la cardamome, du poivre long, de la graine de paradis et de la fleur de muscade. On ne trouve cette variété qu’à Chaz. - J’ignorais que les sujets de Sahr’Lim consommaient l’hypocras, avoua le hérisson géant. - Ha ! Certes non, nous n’en buvons pas ! le détrompa Dazhirk d’un ton affable. Mais cela se vend bien dans l’empire de Tawag, demandez donc à votre compagne. - Effectivement les gens de notre empire en sont friands, affirma Selamawit, et il arrive aussi que les sujets du royaume de Kambu l’achètent quand ils s’approchent de nos frontières. - C’est pourquoi j’en transporte souvent, cela assure déjà les frais de caravane. Mais c’est très délicat au départ, confia Dazhirk avec un regard soucieux vers les lézards géants qui acceptaient docilement leur chargement. - Comment cela ? questionna Nyssa. - Il faut soigneusement sangler les lézards, jeune damoiselle, répondit-il après un silence pendant lequel il scruta attentivement la jeune fille. Ni trop lâche, ni trop serré avec ces reptiles dont le corps se gonfle une fois chargé. Puis, il faut équilibrer très exactement les charges, les envelopper dans une toile épaisse qui les protège de la lumière et de la chaleur, enfin ficeler correctement le tout. Cela fait, on peut alors accomplir des journées entières de voyage sans crainte de semer tout le chargement au long du parcours ou de le renverser, ce qui casserait les récipients et nous ferait perdre notre investissement.”

“It should be the aim of grand strategy to discover and pierce the Achilles' heel of the opposing government's power to make war. Strategy, in turn, should seek to penetrate a joint in the harness of the opposing forces. To apply one's strength where the opponent is strong weakens oneself disproportionately to the effect attained. To strike with strong effect, one must strike at weakness.”

“A soft, easy life is not worth living, if it impairs the fibre of brain and heart and muscle. We must dare to be great; and we must realize that greatness is the fruit of toil and sacrifice and high courage... For us is the life of action, of strenuous performance of duty; let us live in the harness, striving mightily; let us rather run the risk of wearing out than rusting out.”

“The American Colossus was fiercely intent on appropriating and exploiting the riches of all continents - grasping with both hands, reaping where he had not sown, wasting what he thought would last forever. New railroads were opening new territory. The exploiters were pushing farther and farther into the wilderness. The man who could get his hands on the biggest slice of natural resources was the best citizen. Wealth and virtue were supposed to trot in double harness.”

“As a kid who failed out of high school as a freshman, I know firsthand and personally that sense of hopelessness and just being - drifting in the wrong direction, having really no hope. And being able to harness that frustration was incredibly valuable in my life. That's one of the reasons I focus so consistently on the foundation of education, because it helps to eviscerate those things that - unemployment, high jobless rates, poverty.”

“One of the bigger mistakes of our time, I suppose, was preaching the demonization of all judgment without teaching how to judge righteously. We now live in an age where, apart from the inability to bear even good judgment when it so passes by, still everyone, inevitably, has a viral opinion (judgment) about everything and everyone, but little skill in good judgment as its verification or harness.”

“If you create and market a product or service through a business that is in alignment with your personality, capitalizes on your history, incorporates your experiences, harnesses your talents, optimizes your strengths, complements your weaknesses, honors your life's purpose, and moves you towards the conquest of your own fears, there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that anyone in this or any other universe can offer the same value that you do!”

“The transition from coal, oil, and gas to wind, solar, and geothermal energy is well under way. In the old economy, energy was produced by burning something - oil, coal, or natural gas - leading to the carbon emissions that have come to define our economy. The new energy economy harnesses the energy in wind, the energy coming from the sun, and heat from within the earth itself.”

“Creativity or talent, like electricity, is something I don’t understand but something I’m able to harness and use. While electricity remains a mystery, I know I can plug into it and light up a cathedral or a synagogue or an operating room and use it to help save a life. Or I can use it to electrocute someone. Like electricity, creativity makes no judgment. I can use it productively or destructively. The important thing is to use it. You can’t use up creativity. The more you use it, the more you have.”

“Women have an important role in agriculture. We need to introduce technology, which will help us harness the potential of women in agriculture. We need to divide the agriculture sector into three parts- regular farming, farming of trees and animal husbandry. If we are able to do this, the contribution of our women will increase even more.”

“Science and religion are not antagonists. On the contrary, they are sisters. While science tries to learn more about the creation, religion tries to better understand the Creator. While through science man tries to harness the forces of nature around him, through religion he tries to harness the force of nature within him.”

“On this tenth day of June, nineteen hundred and forty, the hand that held the dagger has struck it into the back of its neighbor.... In our unity, in our American unity we will pursue two obvious and simultaneous courses; we will extend to the opponents of force the material resources of this nation, and at the same time we will harness and speed up the use of those resources in order that we ourselves in the Americas may have equipment and training equal to the task of any emergency and every defense.”

“Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise. Once and again one of those great influences which we call a Cause arises in the midst of a nation. Men of strenuous minds and high ideals come forward.... The attacks they sustain are more cruel than the collision of arms.... Friends desert and despise them.... They stand alone and oftentimes are made bitter by their isolation.... They are doing nothing less than defy public opinion, and shall they convert it by blows. Yes.”
