Synopsis

Excerpt from The Works of Daniel Defoe, Vol. 3 of 3: Serious Reflections During the Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe With His Vision of the Angelic World

The world, I say, is nothing to us but as it is more or less to our relish. All reflection is carried home, and our dear self is, in one respect, the end of living. Hence man may be pro erly said to be alone in the midst of the crowds an hurry of men and business. All the reflections which he makes are to himself all that is pleasant he embraces for himself; all that is irksome and grievous is tasted but by his own palate.
