Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life, Letters, and Friendships of Richard Monckton Milnes, Vol. 1 of 2: First Lord Houghton Had all influenced his mind in his youth; he had laid the first plank of a kind of pulpit from which Emerson could preach throughout all Saxondom, and he had recognised the noble character and brilliant qualities of Miss Nightingale long before the world had heard her name. These were but a few of the friendships of Monckton Milnes; and the reader of these pages will learn that, great as the interest of such friendships must necessarily be, they did not suffice to absorb his affections. No mistake could have been more complete than that of supposing that he cared only for the great and the famous. The richest outpourings of his heart and mind were in many cases reserved for men of whom the world knew little or nothing. He delighted in making the acquaintance of all those who were playing a leading part upon the stage of the day; but his truest friend ships were often with those whom fame had never reached, nor success gladdened. And it was no common blessing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life, Letters, and Friendships of Richard Monckton Milnes, Vol. 2 of 2: First Lord Houghton I do not mind 's not having paid mel - that may be almost impossible for him to have done - but he might have sent me the interest, and asked me to let the principal stand over till better times, which I should have done at once. As one gets on in life, one of the most annoying reflections is the little good one has done by what people call benevolence; in fact, how little man can be benefited by others. On the other hand, it is just the best men who can be benefited, as one feels in the life of Goethe. How different his development would have been under adverse circumstances! And how much Carl August had to do with his genius in giving it the peaceful prosperous air in which it delighted to grow! I have had a domestic grievance which has given me much vexation. Lord Palmerston, for my sake, has offered my father a peerage, which the said father refused without consulting me, thereby affronting the Premier, and disappointing my fair claims. I care about the social position for the sake of my wife and children, and I should be glad of a quieter and less confused sphere of political action as I get older and then it distorts the relation between my father and myself in a very uncomfortable manner. As we do not live in Abrahamic times, Isaac may be permitted not fully to appreciate the merit of the paternal sacrifice. Peace is inevitable. Russia acts on a well-settled principle of interest, and cares little about honour. The Czar saw he must be a loser, and bravely submitted to necessity. Consoled with the notion that he had aggrandised France as against England, he will make no small difficulties.

I Often wonder what will be your future destiny, and I think you are near something very glorious, but you will never reach it. I wish it were in my power to give you all the good I possess, and which you want, for I would willingly pull down my hut to build your palace. These were the words in which one of his college friends, Stafford O'Brien, wrote to Milnes during the year 1830, when his career at Cambridge was drawing to a close. They afford a glimpse of the estimation in which the young man was held by his contemporaries at the University. No one doubted his brilliant powers of mind?the eclecticism of his sympathies, the generosity and geniality of his disposition, his love of paradox, the vastness of the field of knowledge which he sought to cultivate, and the cosmopolitanism of his spirit. All these things, however, seemed, in the eyes of his friends, to tell against his chance of attaining that future distinction which he might otherwise have made his own. It was, as we have seen, no ordinary band of young men of whom he made one at Cambridge, nor was it in itself a small distinction to be the friend and associate of such men. That he was recognised by the ablest among them as the equal of any is proved alike by their letters and by the recollections of the survivors. In the eyes of many, indeed, the judgment passed upon him by Stafford O'Brien would have seemed unwarrantably despondent, for unquestionably Milnes was one of the most brilliant of that bright company of ardent youths.
