Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pride and Irresolution, Vol. 1 of 3: A New Series of the Discipline of Life A Man without decision can never be said to belong to himself - since if he dared to assert that he did, the puny force of some cause about as powerful, you would have supposed, as a spider, may make a captive of the hapless boaster the very next moment, and triumphantly exhibit the futility of the determination by which he was to have proved the independence of his understanding and his will. He belongs to whatever can seize him, and innumerable things do actually verify their claim on him and arrest him as he tries to go along - as twigs and chips floating near the edge of a river are intercepted by every weed, and whirled in every little eddy. Foster´s Essay On Decision Of Character. In the progress of their discourse the Marquis of Montrose added, "that course of theirs (i.e. the Covenanters) ended not but in the king´s death, and overturning the whole of the government." When one of the ministers answered, "that was a sectarian party that rose up and carried things beyond the first and true intent of them," he only said in reply, "error is infinite."
