Sinopsis
Excerpt from At Our Best: Or Making the Most of Life
We have suddenly broken into superior ranks. And how Hope now plumes her wings Hence forth we have done with common clay! Adieu, ye lower walks and dull, foolish hours!
But alas! To-morrow will be another yester day. We all know the valley on the other' side of this mountain, and that our descent is too sure to the old ways of plodding and jogging. Here we are once more hammering cold iron, for the fire has gone out in our forge; again bungling and botohing at our tasks again at our doom of forcing very ordinary results that but just now came of themselves, and with a higher beauty and charm. We have not the sensibility for long elevation; cannot command at pleas ure the degree of feeling or inspiration that insures a ready and easy success. Our April tide ends in an August drought.

Excerpt from At Our Best: Or Making the Most of Life
'Though Time thy bloom is stealing,
There's still beyond his art
The wild-flower wreath of feeling." Halleck
'The soul of much slumbers in the shell,
Till wak'd and kindled by the master's spell;
And feeling hearts, touch them but lightly, pour
A thousand melodies unheard before." Roger's Human Live.
We have had many definition of genius and many refusals to attempt to define it, as somewhat that is indefinable, a thing that eludes and takes some other shape, and when we think we have it we have it not.
