Book synopsis

Excerpt from Little Journeys to the Homes of Eminent Orators: Wendell Phillips AY the good Lord ever keep me from wishing to say the last word; and also from assigning ranks or awarding prizes to great men gone. However, it is a joy to get acquainted with a noble, splendid personality, and then introduce him to you, or at least draw the arras, so you can see him as he lived and worked or nobly failed. And if you and I understand this man it is because we are much akin to him. The only relationship, after all, is the spiritual relationship. Your brother after the żesh may not be your brother at all; you may live in different worlds and call to each other in strange tongues across wide seas of misunderstandings. Who is my mother and who are my breth ren? As you understand a man, just in that degree are you related to him. There is a great joy in discovering kinship - for in that moment you discover yourself, and life consists in getting acquainted with yourself. We see ourselves mirrored in the soul of another - that is what love is - or pretty nearly so. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
