Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Feast of Lanterns All Chinese home-life starts with one great underlying advantage - physical beauty. And it has many others. Every Chinese is born into surroundings of pre-eminent beauty - beauty of form, beauty of color, beauty of exquisite juxtapositions - natural beauty and beauty of all things that are made; into beauty, and into an almost untainted atmosphere of good-taste and intrinsic kindliness. Consciously or unconsciously every Chinese is a sincere lover of nature and of everything lovely. No other people has so stern and uncompromising a sense of justice, so ready a sense of humor, more balance, more unflinching loyalty, or less exaggerated estimate of the importance of self. It is a proud people without vanity - a self-reliant, strong people, lacking brutality; suave without affection, dignified without self-assertion - free from ridiculousness, industrious, contented; hard-working dreamers who, too, are shrewdly practical, honest above all other races, home-keeping, home-loving; first of all peoples in its love of children, and in its chivalrous treatment and just estimate of womanhood.
