Excerpt from George Meredith: A Study of His Works and Personality
With Meredith we climb to the Andes of the intellect, and the vastness of the prospect, the radiance of the sun illumining so many different intellectual kingdoms, atones for the touch of frost in the air. But the thin aether is a trial for weak hearts and lungs. Not all can scale these heights, still fewer can abide on these lone tablelands of intellect. Yet the hardened mountaineer will win full many a thrill of sudden discovery such as he can never gain in softer climes.
