Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays and a Drama in Five Acts Man, like the earth, is two hemispheres, and bears two relations with which he cannot trifle except at the greatest cost. These are his relations with things finite and infinite, with things particular and universal. Either of these, neglected, gives rise to inharmonious strength. The soul cannot expand into godlike greatness without the presence of the latter element; nor can it deal efficiently with definite causes and results with the former. He who has lived and thought on more than one side of existence is both a materialist and a spiritualist. From the very constitution of things, Common Sense and even Sagacity are as essential as Faith. In the local and the particular, the universal is revealed. In each stone, leaf, and water-drop, laws are involved that hold good millions of leagues distant. In the neglect of particulars, men physically perish, nor is there a calling or a victory whose sublimity is not obliged to own the worth of detail. In human nature, as in space, there is an earth of practical reality, and over it the soft blue firmament of powers, which suggest and reveal the illimitable and the infinite; and between these two, a similar harmony is intended.
