Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Side-Stepping Saints I am not saying that we ought to forget any part of what we remember; all I am saying is that we do not remember enough. When Dewey came home from a victory, the results of which have embarrassed us ever since, we let our staid selves go, and gave him a sort of Roman triumph. People thronged the streets, and nudged one another excitedly, and said "There he goes - the man who sank the Spanish fleet." So he did; but what about the rest and residue of the man? Thus we glance through the pictorial section of paper or magazine. "O, yes, that is the man who stopped Von Kluck at the Marne. And that other is the winner of the national tennis championship. And yonder is the head of the Union that brought Congress to terms. And here is the most beautiful woman in New York or Seattle." Very correct, no doubt, and more or less useful. I am merely reminding you how partial and unsatisfactory such information is. Likely, a little further information would be far more interesting and helpful.
