Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Progress: And Other Sketches When a man writes an apology pro vita sua, or his confessions, for no one with a spark of humour could in cold blood describe his proper "Life and Miracles" in set biography, the task cannot be hard. For in the main he has to deal with actions, with events, and how he has been influenced by other men, or influenced them. I do not speak of those who with the outward fallible pen describe the spiritual and inner life, which the interior and invisible eye alone can see and focus; for in their case invention, as a general rule, exceeds imagination, and the palaces in which their souls expatiate are not unfrequently as heavy, dull, and overloaded as were the mansions with which Vanbrugh oppressed the earth.
