Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Portrait of a Christian, Drawn From Life: A Memoir of Maria Elizabeth Clapp Value of Biography. Outlines of Miss Clapp´s Character. Her Diary and Private Papers. To teach religion without the aid of biography would be like teaching statuary without models, or geography without a map. Rules and maxims help us to shape our course; but the examples of the good are our guiding stars. The sayings of the wise are the nutriment of virtue; but their own lives are its inspiration. He who describes the way of uprightness enables us to discern, and excites us to approve; but he who traces it in person provokes us to pursue it. The trophies of Miltiades would not suffer Themistocles to sleep. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
