Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Greater America Hits and Hints Concerning their mental attitude toward the world social and political, men may be roughly divided into two classes. Some share with beasts a lucky disposition that makes them accept with content or passive resignation the state of things which they find. When their wants are satisfied, they can lie down and stare and ruminate - nothing being able to disturb the dull and fatty ease of their minds. Others are not so particularly blessed. Just as with the poets of yore, a horse-fly seems to nestle in their brains, and prick and goad them on and on, longing always for better things, impatient with the reality which falls too far short of their ideals, peaceless and restless ever. This difference of mental disposition may be partly brought about by education or surroundings; but it is chiefly a question of temperament. The latter can not help feeling hurt and discontented when their sense of justice and goodness is shocked, any more than the former can help being satisfied when their own individual wants are appeased.
