Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Friendship Shakespeare describes the way in which the essence of fleeting beauty is preserved. "For never-resting time leads summer on To hideous winter, and confounds him there: Sap checked with frost, and lusty leaves quite gone, Beauty o'ersnowed and bareness everywhere: Then were not summer's distillation left A liquid prisoner pent in walls of glass, Beauty's effect with beauty were bereft, Now it nor no remembrance what it was, But flowers distilled, though they with winter meet Leese but their show, their substance still lives sweet." A Book of Friendship is an attempt to collect some of these "flowers distilled" from the world's literature. As the generations pass, friends are separated. But theirs are expressions of feeling that are imperishable. The "substance still lives sweet." It is pleasant not only to know what wise men have thought about friendship, but how friendly souls have actually felt. There must be a vast variety in the incidents of friendships and a unity in its essential nature. No abstract or philosophical description can satisfy us in regard to an intimate personal experience which we all have felt. I can imagine a warm-hearted friend reading Emerson's Essay on Friendship, and wondering what it is all about.

And apart from its place of prominence in systems of thought, perhaps a finer list of beautiful sayings about friendship could be culled from ancient writers than from modern. Classical mythology also is full of instan ces of great friendship, which almost as sumed the place of a religion itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Renewing of Friendship It is a sentiment of the poets and romancers that love is rather helped by quarrels. There must he some truth in it, as we find the idea expressed a hundred times in different forms in literature. We find it among the wisdom of the ancients, and it remains still as one of the conventional properties of the dramatist, and one of the accepted traditions of the novelist. It is expressed in maxim and apothegm, in play and poem. One of our old pre-Elizabethan writers has put it in classic form in English: - The falling out of faithful friends is the renewing of love.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Value of Friendship Still more noteworthy, if possible, is the story of the Sacred Band of Thebans, a company of one hundred and fifty pair of friends. Two by two in a bond of sacred friendship these sol diers enlisted for a life-and-death struggle to gether; and such heroes they were, through being such friends, that their band was never overborne in conflict until the great battle of Chaeronea; and then they all stood and fell together, 'faithful unto death.' When Philip of Macedon looked down upon those three hundred hero-friends, dead in their armour, heaped one upon another, having met the spears of the phalanx face to face, ' he marvelled at the sight; and learning that it was the Band of Friends, he burst into tears, and said, Perish those who would suspect these men of doing or abetting anything base!

TO be sure, that household keeps outrageous hours, and you are morally certain that if they went to bed at ten o'clock and had breakfast at eight, instead of retiring at one O'clock and eating breakfast on their way to the front gate, they would be healthier and happier. So they would, but they will never do it for all your protestations. The best thing you can do is to see that your own family get to bed at ten, and accept the other family as they are. And maybe, some day, seeing how happy and healthy your family is, or wishing to please you because of their genuine affection, they will re form themselves.

Download or read book The Fortune written by Douglas Goldring and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fortune: A Romance of Friendship Dear G. H. B. I offer you this story not because I consider it a tribute of gratitude in any way worthy of a friend to whom I owe more than I shall ever be able to repay, but simply because, with all its defects, I hope you may discern in it a striving after Truth. No doubt the book will be dubbed by many elderly people as a mere pacificist tract masquerading under a thin disguise of fiction; but I do not think that you will so regard it. In writing The Fortune have tried to give a straightforward account of the spiritual adventures of an average intellectual in the first years of the war, and to show how the minds of persons of his age and temperament have become, almost inevitably, a battle-ground for opposing influences and conflicting ideals. I have purposely refrained from endowing my hero with any exceptional or heroic qualities. I suppose it will be agreed that his tragedy is that he is neither sheep nor goat, that he falls between two stools, and that he contrives successfully to make the worst of both worlds. It is the tragedy of how many thousands of old public-schoolboys who have taken part in the present conflict. Though the defects of this novel are entirely my own, it is but the bare truth to acknowledge that any saving qualities which it may possess are due principally to your unsparing criticism. As a critic whether of events, of books or of persons have never once known you allow your vision to be obscured either by sentiment or by passion. Even in that delirious August of 1914 you were never taken in for one moment by the clap-trap and the parrotcries of the Press. it will be along while before I forget the appalling atrocities committed by you on current humbug in those remote days!
