Wundt, the German scientist, whose school of thought is called voluntarism, considers the motive-force of Energy to be something that may be called Will. Crusius, as far back as 1744 said: "Will is the dominating force of the world."

The source of the former is God Himself; the motive-force of the latter the whisperings of selfish desire.

Moreover, she was conscious of a great love warming her heart and strengthening her soul, and with this great motive-force to brace her nerves and add extra charm to her natural loveliness, she had no fear.
