“The new education must consist essentially in this, that it completely destroys freedom of will in the soil which it undertakes to cultivate, and produces on the contrary strict necessity in the decisions of the will, the opposite being impossible. Such a will can henceforth be relied on with confidence and certainty.” DecisionImpossibleProduceOppositesContraryCertaintySoilStrict Book:Addresses to the German nation Source: Addresses to the German nation
“Roque...lined his men up and had them produce all the clothing, jewels, money, and other objects that they had stolen since the last time they had divided the spoils. Having made a hasty appraisal and reduced to terms of money those items that could not be divided, he split the whole into shares with such equity and exactitude that in not a single instance did he go beyond or fall short of a strict distributive justice. They were all well satisfied with the payment received, indeed they were quite well pleased; and Roque then turned to Don Quixote.” MenWellsMadeWholeWisdomLastsFallTermJusticeShareObjectsProduceSatisfiedInstanceDividedClothingsSplitsLast TimeStrictJewelsEquityStolenItemsSpoilPaymentHastyAppraisalExactitude Author:Miguel de Cervantes

“I do not deny that medicine is a gift of God, nor do I refuse to acknowledge science in the skill of many physicians; but, take the best of them, how far are they from perfection? A sound regimen produces excellent effects. When I feel indisposed, by observing a strict diet and going to bed early, I generally manage to get round again, that is, if I can keep my mind tolerably at rest. I have no objection to the doctors acting upon certain theories, but, at the same time, they must not expect us to be the slaves of their fancies.” IfsFeelsMindI CanCertainSoundActingHealingEffectsProduceTheoryBedSkillsPerfectionDoctorsMedicineSlaveRoundsRefuseDenyManageExcellentAcknowledgeDietsFancyPhysiciansStrictObservingObjectionsGift From God Book:The table talk or familiar discourse of Martin Luther, tr. by W.

You can do this very successfully on one strict condition: never try to force the piano to produce the sounds of the violin.
