Power of Rectitude: Impure men consider life as it is reflected in options, events and persons. They cannot see the action, until it is done. Yet its moral element pre-existed in the actor, and its quality as right or wrong, it was easy to predict. Feeble souls look at the profit or hurt of the action. They never behold a principle until it is lodged in a person. They do not wish to be lovely, but to be loved. The class of character worship events; secure to them a fact, a connection, a certain chain of circumstances, and they will ask no more. The hero sees that the event is ancillary; it must follow him. Prosperity belongs to a certain mindset, and will introduce that power and victory which is its natural fruits, into any order of events. Rectitude is a perpetual victory celebrated not by cries of joy, but by serenity, which is joy fixed or habitual - Ralph Waldo Emerson.
