Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Isle of the Deathless, With Minor Poems: Also, Spare Moments; Or Thoughts in Prose The very act of publishing ones thoughts would seem to indicate a love of popularity - a desire for the world´s applause, but with me, it is not so; for although a few words of approval and encouragement from the good and wise, the warm-hearted and true, would be to me as a spring of water in the wilderness to the weary traveller; or, as the rope thrown to the sinking mariner over the dark and boisterous billow; yet, to be the idol of a crowd, - to have my name wafted abroad by the "Trumpet-tongue of Fame," is not my object, for to echo one of the many beautiful sentiments of our own immortal Bard, - "I hold the world, but as the world, - A stage, where every man must play his part," About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
