Energiewende
Energy in truth stands not
beside but entirely above all
other commodities.... With
energy almost any feat is
possible or easy; without it
we are thrown back into the
laborious poverty of early
times.
William Stanley Jevons, 1866
37. As a man himself sows, so he
himself reaps... The fruit is of
the same quality as the action.
—Mahabharata, xii.291.22
Whoever sows sparingly will also
reap sparingly, and whoever sows
bountifully will also reap bountifully.
Corinthians 9:6
