Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Songs of Challenge: An Anthology Selected and Arranged Man has always been at war with himself, and every now and again he awakens to the consciousness that his discontent is divine. Then he turns in weariness from his greatest material accomplishments toward the "Happy Isles" of his imagination. We all have our secret dreams, which generally include a revolt against our own limitations and a longing for better things than those we know. "Whence" and "Whither" will ever be inseparable phases of the Great Adventure, as the real man views it. And, inasmuch as this compilation is meant for that particular breed, it will be quite apparent to him that there is no intent to "point a moral or adorn a tale," to either affirm or deny, and least of all, to constitute itself a moral or spiritual finger-board. From the standpoint of the materialist, one of life´s tragedies lies in the fact that so many of us know so many things that are n´t so. Scarce one of us, however, but recognizes that "When the fight begins within himself, A man´s worth something." Pin us down and you´ll find that most of us believe in our kinship with the worth-while things, the truly big things, "the stars which fleck our journey´s dusks."
