Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Golden Road "Years prophetical the space ahead as I walk, as I vainly try to pierce it; Unborn deeds, things soon to be, project their shapes around me; The Unperformed, more gigantic than ever, advance, advance upon me." A book so rambling in character as the present volume needs, perhaps, explanation or apology, or both. "The Golden Road" is not designed as travel, or biography, or autobiography, but a "blend," as the food conservers say. No one liveth to himself alone, and our individual lives, I take it, derive much of their possible significance, and certainly a very large part of their happiness, from the lives they encounter on the march; from the noble and the great of soul whom they look to in reverent appreciation, from the friends whom they hold in unforgetting devotion. The book is as rambling as life itself, touching on points only, here and there; for life is a series of sequences, and events apparently unrelated at the time often appear, in any retrospective glance, as fitting themselves into a mosaic structure. For life itself, just the business of daily living, has always seemed to me the finest of the fine arts, in that it is the quality of this daily experience that determines its trend and its progress.
