Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Leader of Freemen: The Life Story of Samuel Chapman Armstrong, Brevet Brigadier-General, U. S. A This is a brief story of the life of a man who "made good." Doubtless he never once used that expression. Very likely he never heard it. It is equally certain, too, that he never applied it to himself or even dreamed that he had won any such title. If he had thought so this story would not have been written. For making good is something like popularity; - the man who tries to be popular never succeeds. If one makes friends he does so because of what he really is, not because of what he does. If a fellow´s mates do not like him for what he is, they certainly will not be drawn to him by his open efforts to make himself popular. And the same thing is true in making good. Many a man who really is making good would hardly believe you if you were to tell him of the fact. On the other hand, if he should tell you that he is making good you would hardly believe him. Good old Archbishop Whately used to say of a certain young preacher that "he aimed at nothing and hit it."
