And now at last the highest truth on this subject remains unsaid , probably cannot be said ; for all that we say is the far - off remembering of the intuition . That thought , by what I can now nearest approach to say it , is this .

All history , from its highest to its trivial passages , is the various record of this power . Thus all concentrates : let us not rove ; let us sit at home with the cause . Let us stun and astonish the intruding rabble of men and books ...

Prayer is the contemplation of the facts of life from the highest point of view . It is the soliloquy of a beholding and jubilant soul . It is the spirit of God pronouncing his works good . But prayer as a means to effect a private end ...

熱門章節
第 43 頁 - Man is his own star; and the soul that can Render an honest and a perfect man, Commands all light, all influence, all fate; Nothing to him falls early or too late. Our acts our angels are, or good or ill, Our fatal shadows that walk by us still.
第 54 頁 - It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.
第 86 頁 - Greenwich nautical almanac he has, and so being sure of the information when he wants it, the man in the street does not know a star in the sky. The solstice he does not observe ; the equinox he knows as little ; and the whole bright calendar of the year is without a dial in his mind.
第 57 頁 - A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.
第 63 頁 - Kingdom and lordship, power and estate, are a gaudier vocabulary than private John and Edward in a small house and common day's work; but the things of life are the same to both; the sum total of both is the same. Why all this deference to Alfred and Scanderbeg and Gustavus? Suppose they were virtuous; did they wear out virtue?

第 69 頁 - When a man lives with God, his voice shall be as sweet as the murmur of the brook and the rustle of the corn.
第 49 頁 - ... interesting, silly, eloquent, troublesome. He cumbers himself never about consequences, about interests; he gives an independent, genuine verdict. You must court him; he does not court you. But the man is as it were clapped into jail by his consciousness. As soon as he has once acted or spoken with eclat he is a committed person, watched by the sympathy or the hatred of hundreds, whose affections must now enter into his account. There is no Lethe for this.
第 49 頁 - The nonchalance of boys who are sure of a dinner, and would disdain as much as a lord to do or say aught to conciliate one, is the healthy attitude of human nature.
第 45 頁 - To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men — that is genius.
第 125 頁 - ... seen, and not, as in most men, an indurated heterogeneous fabric of many dates and of no settled character, in which the man is imprisoned. Then there can be enlargement, and the man of to-day scarcely recognizes the man of yesterday. And such should be the outward biography of man in time, a putting off of dead circumstances day by day, as he renews his raiment day by day.
