Past Meridian (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from Past Meridian

IT is not considered polite to ask people their age, after the bloom of youth has departed. I would not willingly violate the rules of decorum, or tempt any one to hide the foot-prints of Time, as the Indian warrior covers his track with leaves. Making no invidious inquiry, let me simply whisper in the ear of those who have achieved more than half life's journey, that this book is for them. It is their own exclusive property. It is devoted heart and hand to their interest. Whoever is found reading it may be suspected to have attained the same ripe age.
