What is the natural outgrowth of long and arduous effort?
Intellectual achievements are the result of thought consecrated to the search for knowledge—or for the beautiful and true in life and nature.
Such achievements are not the outcome of vanity and ambition, they are the natural outgrowth of long and arduous effort and of pure and unselfish thoughts.
James Allen, As a Man Thinketh, Thomas Y. Crowell, New York, 1913, Chapter Five, The Thought Factor in Achievement, 37
