Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of Thoughts Tillotson has said, speaking of the brief and noticeably striking sayings of Wise and good men: They are of great value, like the dust of gold, or the sparks of diamonds. Johnson counts him a benefactor of man kind who condenses the great thoughts and rules of life into short sentences that are easily impressed on the memory, and recur promptly to the mind. Swift compares such thoughts to burning glasses, as they collect the diffused rays of wit and learning in authors, and make them point with warmth and quickness on the reader's imagination.

Download or read book A Dictionary of Quotations from the English Poets Classic Reprint written by Henry George Bohn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of Quotations From the English Poets Waller, Dryden, Addison, Prior, Gay, Pope, Swift, Thomson, and a great many others who flourished within his time; and these were precisely the poets we most cared to cultivate. In later years, but too late for my youthful purposes, Messrs. Whittaker brought out a Dictionary of Quotations from the British Poets, in 3 vols. Post 8vc., one for Shakespeare in 1823, another for Blank Verse in 1824, and the third for Rhyme in 1825, all anonymous, but known to be by Wm. Kingdom. This work, which subsequently became my property, is a very careful and excellent compilation, and has been largely used by subsequent compilers, English and American, especially the latter, without in any instance, as far as I can discover, having been acknowledged or even mentioned by them.

Download or read book The Dictionary of Legal Quotations Classic Reprint written by James William Norton-Kyshe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dictionary of Legal Quotations The dicta of our Chancellors and Judges are so numerous and often so good that regret has often been expressed that a record, in accessible form, has not been made of them. Many excellent specimens of judicial rules generally and of forensic wit lie buried, however, among a vast quantity of dull material scattered in the law libraries, and an attempt on a large scale has now been made, for the first time it is believed, to consult the treasures they contain, and as far as is possible, to disinter and codify them. The author's object in producing this work has been to digest this kind of learning, and thus exhibit in a compendious and accessible form those sayings embodied in judicial decisions which cannot be traced without considerable research and difficulty: often difficulty upon any terms, for the books are not always accessible, or if accessible, the quotations them selves are often as not quoted without folio or page or ene quoted. In this lies the primary importance of this work, which is therefore a supplementary digest in itself which it is hoped may obtain a wide sphere. The Judges of England have long enjoyed a well-earned reputation for eminence and dialectic feeling, and a study of their thoughts from their opinions and judgments show the numerous sayings, both grave and gay, that have proceeded from the judicial bench. It was a Bishop of London, the late Bishop Creighton, who once said that he found special virtues in old books 1; and so did the famous Lord Bacon.' How far this is correct as regards books of ordinary literature most people will agree, but with regard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A New Shakespearean Dictionary Classic Reprint written by Richard John Cunliffe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Shakespearean Dictionary I have aimed at helping those who wish to read Shakespeare in a scholarly spirit, with a full understanding of the sense, and at providing the means of forming an accurate idea of the extent to which the Shake spearean vocabulary diflrers from our own, and of the details of the difference. The Shakespearean language is, to an extent greater than is sometimes supposed, a dead tongue to us; and can be thoroughly mastered only by study with the aid of grammar, dictionary and com ment. In the matter of grammar the student's needs are amply supplied; there is at his disposal a body of comment, of varying excellence, it is true, but of great extent; but there seems to be. Room for a dictionary on the lines of the present work, showing the results of a reconsideration of the vocabulary in the light of recent research. In particular the time seems to have come for a fresh treatment of the subject in view of the fact that the New English Dictionary, to 'which further reference is made below, is so far advanced towards completion. So far as I am aware this is the first work of the kind on a considerable scale in'which the materials furnished by the Dictionary have been systematically drawn upon, and in which the scientific guidance to the treatment of the words which it affords has been fully made use of - a feature which may of itself be thought to entitle the book to some consideration.
