Aforismi in lingua originale - To build like Nehemiah.

The man building up an intellectual system has to build like Nehemiah, with the sword in one hand and the trowel in the other. The imagination, the constructive quality, is the trowel, and argument is the sword.

Gilbert Keith Chesterton, Twelve Types, "Thomas Carlyle".
