Excerpt from The Life of George H. Stuart
Read biographies, says Carlyle, but especially autobiographies. Except the great works of imagina tive genius, there are no books that bring us into more real and immediate relations with our fellow-men. And, indeed, it is a large part of the prerogative of a Shake speare that he is able to make his characters unfold their own lives to us, if not in chronological sequence, yet in the substance of what they had experienced and had learned from experience.
