Energy
A man can be a star of the first magnitude in gifts, will-power and endurance, but so well balanced that he turns with the system to which he belongs without any friction or waste of energy. An other may have the same great gifts, or even finer ones, but the axis does not pass precisely through the centre and he squanders half his strength in eccentric movements which weaken him and disturb his surroundings.
-- Hermann Hesse.
