Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures and Addresses Wordsworth, that pure and lofty poet whose soul was akin to Milton's own, has expressed this aspect of Milton's character. Thy soul was like a star, and dwelt apart Thou hadst a voice whose sound was like the sea, Pure as the naked heavens, majestic, free So didst thou travel on life's common way In cheerful godliness; and yet thy heart The lowliest duties on herself did lay.'

Download or read book Addresses and Lectures Classic Reprint written by George Alexander Macfarren and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addresses and Lectures It is a notable characteristic of this Academy that the several teachers who favour us with their assist ance have free scope for the exercise of their powers - untrammelled by a system, unlimited hy'the views of others. Truth is a many-sided statue; it is to be seen from all aspects, and each person whose duty it is to explain it must give that explanation from his own point of vision. This one may tell us that the shield is gold, that one that it is silver: we compare the evidence of both, and learn that there are two sides to the shield, which bears various colours. Thus an admirable advantage to a Student in this School is that, while each has the privilege of the advice and instruction of the particular Professor to whom his talents are confided, each gathers something of the perception and insight of the whole Academic staff. It is most notable that a large part of your instruc tion, my dear young friends, is communicated by and among yourselves. This one has been told by his Professor from such an aspect, that one from such another. You compare their views, you enlarge upon your perception of those very views, and you come by this means to a comprehension of the many-sided truth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Representative Men: Nature, Addresses and Lectures It is natural to believe in great men. If the companions of our childhood should turn out to be heroes, and their condition regal, it would not surprise us. All mythology opens with demigods, and the circumstance is high and poetic; that is, their genius is paramount. In the legends of the Gautama, the first men ate the earth, and found it deliciously sweet. Nature seems to exist for the excellent. The world is upheld by the veracity of good men: they make the earth wholesome. They who lived with them found life glad and nutritious. Life is sweet and tolerable only in our belief in such society; and actually, or ideally, we manage to live with superiors. We call our children and our lands by their names.

If any of the sermons I de livered when in the clerical profession were to be given the public, it seemed to me best that they should be printed now precisely as they were de livered then. I have, therefore, refrained from changing a word or reconstructing a sentence in them. I have not even allowed myself to read the proof sheets, lest I should be overtempted, by faults perceived, to re-edit them. The thought and word stand here precisely as conceived and.

Download or read book Addresses Speeches Lectures and Letters Upon Various Subjects Classic Reprint written by Hugh McCulloch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addresses, Speeches, Lectures, and Letters Upon Various Subjects The Addresses, Speeches, Lectures, etc., etc., which appear in this volume have been selected from many others, and are intended to be preserved in this form for the use of those who, years hence, may be inter ested in what is substantially a record of my feelings and views upon important subjects in very interesting periods of our national history. The addresses delivered at Fort Wayne, Ind., in 1861 and 1865 can hardly fail, at any time, to be inter esting, as they present the prevailing sentiment of the people of the Northern States at the commencement and the close of the civil war. The letters, which were written in London for the New York T rz'bnne, were copied by a great many newspapers, and very widely circulated and favorably commented upon in all parts of the country. They were written and the Cambridge lectures were delivered when financial and economic questions were engaging public attention - questions that have lost none of their interest - the definite solution of which seems to be far in the future.

Download or read book Ethical Addresses Classic Reprint written by Harry Houdini Collection and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ethical Addresses My hope for the world, as the twentieth century opens, is coincident with my hope for democracy. Can the people of this world govern themselves well? That is the question which most concerns us in this republic, and which most concerns the world; because, well or ill, the people from now on are to govern themselves. Democracy seems to me to be gaining ground so fast, that I think the time has almost come to cease to discuss whether it ought to come or not, but to accept it as a great fact that is upon us like an avalanche, and to ask ourselves how we can guide it and how we can enlighten it. Wherever we look upon the world, there we see the great striving for democracy. Where it has not yet come - in Spain, in Italy, in Germany, in Russia - there we see the great struggle and throbbing of people pushing towards it. And to-day, in the most autocratic countries of the world, Kaisers, Czars and Chancellors listen to note what the great popular impulses are - what public opinion is - and trim their policies to that. And this great movement of democracy, as we understand it, began here. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Torch, and Other Lectures and Addresses IT belongs to a highly developed race to become, in a true sense, aristocratic a treasury of its best in practi cal and spiritual types, and then to disappear in the sur rounding tides of men. So Athens dissolved like a pearl in the cup of the Mediterranean, and Rome in the cup of Europe, and Judaea in the cup of the Universal Com munion. Though death is the law of all life, man touches this earthen fact with the wand of the spirit, and trans forms it into the law of sacrifice. Man has won no vic tory over his environment so sublime as this, finding in his mortal sentence the true choice of the soul and in the road out of Paradise the Open highway of eternal life. Races die; but the ideal of sacrifice as the highest race destiny has seldom occurred to men, though it has been suggested both by devout Jews and by devout Irishmen as the divinely appointed organic law of the Hebrew and the Celt. In the general view of men the extinction of a race partakes of the unreasoning finality of nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
