Wayside Wisdom PDF Download

Excerpt from Wayside Wisdom: A Book for Quiet People The wisest men in all ages, from the Golden to the Electric, have been those who have learned to think for themselves; who as children made their own playthings, and when they grew older created their own worlds and were content to live in them. They may, as we reckon, have had but few advantages; but they have studied deeply in those two great books that are well within the reach of all of us - the round world and the human heart books unhappily neglected to-day by many writers and more readers. And yet an inexhaustible store of learning IS to be found in those pages that, however often we may turn them, can never wear out, and whose last chapters we shall never read.
