All the actions that we see in the world, all the movements in human

society, all the works that we have around us, are simply the display

of thought, the manifestation of the will of man. Machines or

instruments, cities, ships, or men-of-war, all these are simply the

manifestation of the will of man; and this will is caused by

character, and character is manufactured by Karma. As is Karma, so is

the manifestation of the will. The men of mighty will the world has

produced have all been tremendous workers - gigantic souls, with

wills powerful enough to overturn worlds, wills they got by

persistent work, through ages, and ages.
