Excerpt from Life Studies of Character Men have lived and died under the impression that their actions when living were either unnoticed or unworthy Of being recorded. Such actors are among the heroes I mean to honour in this book, making them teachers of people who seem to think themselves above the power of pulpit, press, or past experience.
