“What makes Rudolf Steiner's work of such peculiar interest and value, is, I venture to think, two things. First, he combined the knowledge of a student and scholar with the force and organizing capacity of a man of action. Secondly, he combined the gifts of paranormal cognition with the fine mind of a scholar. The union of these things in one and the same person is indeed rare.”
