“It is always delightful to have one's feeling expressed by some one else in language of enthusiasm one might oneself be afraid to employ.”
“Enthusiasm is the element of success in every thing. It is the light that leads, and the strength that lifts men on and up, in the great struggles of scientific pursuit, and of professional labor. It robs endurance of difficulty and makes a pleasure of duty.”
“Enthusiasm is the divine particle in our composition: with it we are great, generous, and true; without it, we are little, false, and mean.”
“When once enthusiasm has been turned into ridicule, all is defeated, except wealth and power.”
“Enthusiasm is that secret and harmonious spirit which hovers over the production of genius, throwing the reader of a book, or the spectator of a statue, into the very ideal presence whence these works have really originated. A great work always leaves us in a state of musing.”
“Those who have arrived at any very eminent degree of excellence in the practice of an art or profession have commonly been actuated by a species of enthusiasm in their pursuit of it. They have kept one object in view amidst all the vicissitudes of time and fortune.”
