The Abrams Clean Tech Report

A quote for the day

Thursday, August 18th, 2005

No, this has absolutely not much whatsoever to do with Clean Tech anything. However, it’s one of my favorite all-time quotes I turn to for inspiration…From mountaineer W.H. Murray

"Until one is committed there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves, too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way.

 

And one more for the evening — and with that - a good night: from Goethe, on whom I wrote for my Master’s Thesis: "Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. / Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."
