The Life and Work of Susan B. Anthony (Volume 1 of 2)

CHAPTER VI
10/47

You have an intensity of emotion and thought which makes your mind terse, sharp, spicy and clear.
You always work with a will, a purpose and a straightforwardness of mental action.

You seldom accomplish ends by indirect means or circuitous routes, but unfurl your banner, take your position and give fair warning of the course you intend to pursue.

You are not naturally fond of combat, but when once fairly enlisted in a cause that has the sanction of your conscience and intellect, your firmness and ambition are such, combined with thoroughness and efficiency of disposition, that all you are in energy and talent is enlisted and concentrated in the one end in view.
You are watchful but not timid, careful to have everything right and safe before you embark; but when times of difficulty and danger arrive, you meet them with coolness and intrepidity.

You have more of the spirit of acquisition than of economy; you would rather make new things than patch the old.

Your continuity is not large enough.
You find it at times difficult to bring the whole strength of your mind to bear upon a subject and hold it there patiently in writing or speaking.
