Our officers and men behaved like men who are determined to be free.
When people are determined they can overcome anything.
What can stop the determined heart and resolved will of man?
People who are too fastidious towards the finite, never reach actuality, but lie idle in abstractions, till their light gradually dies away.
If one has the determination, always get something out of life.
When I want to get anywhere, I usually do.
What determined the outcome of a life? A series of random events you had no control over, or did some cosmic gravity pull everything in the direction it was predestined to go?
So much of life, it seems, is determined by pure randomness.
Nothing is impossible that one desires with an indomitable will.[Umuligt er forresten ingenting, som man ubændigt vil.]
It is the stars, The stars above us, govern our conditions.
It is my earnest desire that some of you should carry on this scientific work and keep for your ambition the determination to make a permanent contribution to science.
If you haven’t the strength to impose your own terms upon life, you must accept the terms it offers you.
