Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Annual Address Delivered Before the Belles-Lettres and Union Philosophical Societies of Dickinson College, Carlisle, July 18, 1938 Whilst in revisiting a scene of my youth, connected with so many interesting associations, it is natural that my mind should dwell on the past; that memory should be busy in recalling the once familiar faces, the warm confiding friendships, the pleasures, the studies, the young aspirations, the budding passions and the bold hopes of that never-forgotten period of mans life, his College days, yet in addressing you I feel that the future, not the past is the fitting topic. What is to me recollection, is to you either anticipation or present enjoyment; to many of you the hour has arrived, to all of you the hour will soon arrive, when released from the restraints, removed also from the protection of Alma Mater, you are to assume the responsibilities, encounter the perils, perform the duties, and enter into the active business of life. The few years of easy study and careless happiness passed in these halls, have brought you to a point at which you may well pause and survey the future which lies before you. The prospect is broad, varied, and indistinct; distance lends enchantment to the view, and the young imagination suffuses it with its own bright tints. Your journey of life lies through that wide and beautiful landscape, and you are about to commence it full of confidence and hope. It is the morning; the sky is clear, the air is fresh, the sun shines brightly. Seen through the vivifying medium of youthful spirits, every thing seems easy, every thing promises delight.
