It is the poise of a great nature, in harmony with itself and its ideals. It is the moral atmosphere of a life self-centred, self-reliant, and self-controlled. Calmness is singleness of purpose, absolute confidence, and conscious power, --ready to be focused in an instant to meet any crisis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sphinx is not a true type of calmness, --petrifaction is not calmness; it is death, the silencing of all the energies; while no one lives his life more fully, more intensely and more consciously than the man who is calm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Fatalist is not calm. He is the coward slave of his environment, hopelessly surrendering to his present condition, recklessly indifferent to his future. He accepts his life as a rudderless ship, drifting on the ocean of time. He has no compass, no chart, no known port to which he is sailing. His self-confessed inferiority to all nature is shown in his existence of constant surrender. It is not, -- calmness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William George Jordan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1774416212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781774416211\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Binker North\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/1900\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 42\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"William George Jordan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43983416066303,"sku":"9781774416211","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f654eed4-8d63-4400-8cf8-17ad34e3ee33.jpg?v=1683266513","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-majesty-of-calmness-william-george-jordan-9781774416211","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
