Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters and Leadership I do not mean that M. De Lanux develops this general thesis. But it is, I believe, the matrix of his argument. And it implies that if we are to develop this common aim, if we are to unite in this common programme, it is of the highest importance for us to understand the unique conditions that hamper the creative life in each individual country. What we want is the fullest and the freest expression of every people along the lines of its own genius, for it is of the nature of the creative spirit that its manifestations cannot con ict with one another and that the more various they are the richer and the more harmonious life becomes. That is why M. De Lanux, in selecting certain of our writers to translate into French, says that the more genuinely American they are the more France will be inclined to welcome them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Letter to an American Friend At the moment of writing we have reached the gravest crisis of the world-war. Russia lies prostrate at the feet of the common enemy; the Ukraine has not only made peace but is preparing to receive aid in her struggle against the Bolshevik Government; Roumania is isolated and helpless in presence of the convulsions of her once mighty neighbour, and may be compelled to get the best terms she can from the conqueror, as the Entente Powers are through force of circumstances unable to render her any immediately effective assistance; Poland, Courland, Lithuania, Finland - all are at the disposal of their German military masters. Plainly, for the time being at any rate, Eastern Europe has been swept within the orbit of German military domination, with all that that portentous fact implies.

Download or read book Letters of S A Kellogg Classic Reprint written by S. Alonzo Kellogg and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of S. A. Kellogg Did you think I had quite forgotten you? It looked very much so I admit. I have written, I know, two or three times to each of the other children and I have never written you a word that I can remember. I have neglected you without any cause. Will you accept a very meek apology and a prom ise from me to do better in future and so let me off? If you will, I will remember my promise and keep it, too. Now, in the first place, I would like to know how large you are, so I may know just how to talk; but I don't know and so I shall have to guess, though I assure you it is decidedly hard to guess and unpleasant when you don't guess right. I tried it once and was badly sold. I was thrown back a whole period, and feel very cheap yet, and as I don't like myself to be sold and cut up very fine, and I don't suppose you would like it, either, let me give you a little advice if it doesn't look to you too oflicious. When you go away from home, if you ever do, to stay a great while, and I hope you never may, and you leave behind you little children and you begin to write them letters at first, do you either keep on writing regularly or else drop it altogether. Don't st0p for two years or more and then begin again, for if you do, the chances are that you will be so badly sold that you will feel as cheap as I do. And by the way, J amie, isn 't it strange that you haven't written me a note even before this time? I know I should have written first, but you wouldn't insist upon formality with me. Would you? What have I been doing since I came away? I expect you have been growing like the rest and learning a great deal; tell me what? Tell me what sport you have, and how you pass your time away. And, J amie, will you listen to me, and will you remem ber it, when I tell you that of all the good things in the world to know is the best. You can't know too much and I hope there is no danger that you will know too little. I shall find out how much you have improved when I come back, and if I think it is too little, I shall tell you so, and if I think you havelearned enough for the time, I shall - well, I won't tell you what I will do, but I won't scold you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rules of Conduct: Diary of Adventure, Letters, and Farewell Addresses The story of the life of George Washington is the proud possession of every American boy. All the outward events w)f that wonderful career the young hero-worshipper can recount, from the breaking-in of the pet colt somewhere about 1738 on the lawn of the Virginian plantation to the taking of the oath of office as President in New York in 1789. He knows by heart the exciting adventures of the young Washington during his three years' survey of the Virginian wilderness; he admires the Major Washington who so gallantly bore the commission of Governor Dinwiddle to warn the French off the Ohio lands and afterward saved the army of the obstinate Braddock from total defeat in the fight for Fort Duquesne. He knows how his hero resented the Stamp Act, and stood unflinchingly for justice in the Continental Congress; how he was elected Commander-in-Chief of the army and came to Cambridge to receive its leadership under the elm which still bears his name.

But he liked the work and, much to my surprise, he seemed to be making good.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty-Four Letters to a Son in the Ministry The following Letters, addressed to a beloved son in the ministry, have been put to press with the hope that the outline of ministerial and pastoral duties, which I have attempted to sketch for his benefit, may afford some profitable hints to others, Who are just entering the sacred profession, or have not been long enough in it to derive a great deal of instruction from the best of all earthly teachers, experience. I cannot forget, that to this number belong several hundred young brethren, in whom I feel a peculiar interest, on account of the relations which we sustained to each other during the Collegiate stage of their preparation for the great work to which God has called them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Man of Destiny To Grover Cleveland, President-Elect: Dear Sir, - I do not address you by the title of "excellency," which custom has permitted to be bestowed upon persons holding the position you now occupy, because I wish to write to you in that other and newer capacity, which, because it was so much grander than any prince or potentate had ever enjoyed, our forefathers, by express denial of ever possible form or character of title, did in effect affirmatively decree should have no distinguishing term save that of "President." It was their firm belief that he who might be selected by the people of a great nation to represent their power, by the manhood of a people to represent its strength, by the life of a land to represent its life, should be so great in character, so excellent in fame, so exalted in virtue, and so eminent in all manly attributes that only one word should be used to designate the fact that the Nation had cast upon his shoulders the mantle of leadership.

Download or read book Letters to Rev Nathaniel W Taylor D D Classic Reprint written by Leonard Woods and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters to Rev. Nathaniel W. Taylor, D. D I cannot but feel that every public teacher of religion needs the vigilant inspection of his brethren. Indeed, where is the pious min ister of Christ Who has not this feeling in regard to himself, and who does not find reason for it in his own experience? And where is the intelligent Christian, who has not at times detected in him self the commencement Of such habits of thinking, as might lead on to wide departures from the truth as it is in Jesus? The darkness of the human mind, and the strength of unholy passion is such, even in real Christians, and the causes of error are so various and power ful, and some Of them so latent, that it can never be deemed safe to trust the interests Of religion implicitly in the hands Of any man. NO fertility of genius no extent Of learning; no metaphysical acu men; and no degree of piety, as it exists in the present world, can be relied upon as affording full security. Formerly, when I turned my thoughts towards particular ministers Of the gospel, and partien lar Christians, I was ready to think it impossible, that they should ever abandon any Of the truths Of revelation, or embrace any hurt ful error. But what I have seen of the human mind during more than thirty years in the ministry, and more than twenty in my pre sent Office, has led me to entertain other views on this subject, and has impressed my mind with a serious conviction, that there IS no teacher of religion in our churches, or in our Seminaries, no, not one, who can think himself free from the danger Of error, or who has not reason to apprehend that a deceived heart may turn him aside. And if, in these days of adventurous speculation, any Of those, who are called by divine providence to instruct in our theolo gical schools, should wholly, or in part renounce the doctrines. Of revelation, and become advocates Of error; it would only be a repe tition Of what has Often occurred in past ages. Suffer me now to Offer a few suggestions as to the proper use Of these remarks.
