Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from By the Fireside Foremost among the things that never perish, though continually changing, is the family. Among different peoples and in different ages its appearance differs, but in one form or another it always exists. Not only has the family undergone profound changes, it has suffered grave deterioration, encountered innumerable enemies, contracted vices and taken on stains. It appears to us as a human institution, regulated by customs and laws, exposed to the errors and passions of men; and by virtue of its exterior conditions it belongs to the ephemeral: but by its root it plunges into the eternal. Love and the ties of blood - the centuries pass, these things endure. As ancient as the world, they are as young as each new morning, and we are men only in proportion to the hold they have taken upon us. I am going to speak here of these sacred and immortal commonplaces, among which we need to refresh ourselves as in a fountain of youth.
