Greatest VI

"I believe I have discovered the one great, moving, compelling force which makes every man what he becomes in the end. This, I believe, is the greatest force in the universe. I believe all other causes are secondary to it. It is so powerful that the slightest human effort cannot be put forth until it has done its work; and if it should suddenly be annihilated from the world, all activity would come to a standstill, and humanity would become a mass of automatons moving about in meaningless circles. This force is not love; it is not religion; it is not virtue; it is not ambition -- for none of these could exist an hour without it...it is imagination."
