“Keynes was chief economic adviser to the British government and largely responsible for keeping the British economy afloat at a time when more than half of our gross national product, and all of our foreign exchange, was being spent on the war. I was lucky to be present at one of his rare appearances in Cambridge, when he gave a lecture with the title "Newton, the Man." Four years later he died of heart failure, precipitated by overwork and the hardships of crossing the Atlantic repeatedly in slow propeller-driven airplanes under wartime conditions.” MenYearsHeartWarGovernmentHalfEconomyFourEconomicConditionsHe ManProductsLuckyDiedResponsibleAppearanceBritishDrivenChiefsTitlesHardshipFour YearsAirplaneGrossLecturesNewtonCrossingsAdviserCambridgeWartimeOverworkKeynesBritish GovernmentHeart FailurePropellerForeign ExchangeBritish Economy Author:Freeman Dyson
“For me, exploration was a personal venture. I did not go to the Arabian desert to collect plants nor to make a map; such things were incidental. At heart I knew that to write or even to talk of my travels was to tarnish the achievement. I went there to find peace in the hardship of desert travel and the company of desert peoples. I set myself a goal on these journeys, and, although the goal itself was unimportant, its attainment had to be worth every effort and sacrifice... No, it is not the goal but the way there that matters, and the harder the way the more worth while the journey.” WayWritingHeartMatterGoalEffortCompanySacrificeJourneyAchievementHarderPlantDesertMapsHardshipExplorationVentureAttainmentUnimportantFinding PeaceArabian Book:Arabian Sands Source: Arabian Sands
