Synopsis
Excerpt from Living Thoughts in Words That Burn, From Poet, Sage and Humorist: A Vast Collection of Choice Literature of All Ages, Gathered From the World's Greatest Libraries
While every sentiment that is pure and lofty is expressed in words that breathe thoughts that burn, no attempt is made to classify them, believing that indiscriminate commingling of the various subjects add brilliancy and luster to its pages. The tall and stately oak loses much of its grandeur when surrounded only with others of equal height and dimensions; and the vine that encircles it and clings to its sides loses much of its sentiment when tom away and placed amid any other surroundings. Even the fire-fly, that emits ever and anon its luminous spark, in the depths of the forest shades, would not be half so charming if transported to other scenes. The volume will be as it is intended, not as a text-book on literature, but a book to pick up and read during a leisure hour, with greatest possible benefit and enjoyment.
Our thanks are due to the many friends for their kind suggestions and valuable assistance in this arduous task, and we take this method of expressing our appreciation.
