More From Samuel Smiles
A Great Deal Of What Passes By The Name Of Patriotism In These Days Consists Of The Merest Bigotry And Narrow-mindedness; Exhibiting Itself In National Prejudice, National Conceit, And National Hatred. It Does Not Show Itself In Deeds, But In Boastings--in Howlings, Gesticulations, And Shrieking Helplessly For Help--in Flying Flags And Singing Songs--and In Perpetual Grinding At The Hurdy-gurdy Of Long-dead Grievances And Long-remedied Wrongs. To Be Infested By Such A Patriotism As This Is Perhaps Among The Greatest Curses That Can Befall Any Country.

The Iron Rail Proved A Magicians' Road. It Virtually Reduced England To A Sixth Of Its Size. It Brought The Country Nearer To The Town And The Town To The Country.... It Energized Punctuality, Discipline, And Attention; And Proved A Moral Teacher By The Influence Of Example.

Hope Is Like The Sun, Which, As We Journey Towards It, Casts The Shadow Of Our Burden Behind Us. ...hope Sweetens The Memory Of Experiences Well Loved. It Tempers Our Troubles To Our Growth And Our Strength. It Befriends Us In The Dark Hours, Excites Us In Bright Ones. It Lends Promise To The Future And Purpose To The Past. It Turns Discouragement To Determination. Samuel Smiles

Necessity Is Always The First Stimulus To Industry, And Those Who Conduct It With Prudence, Perseverance And Energy Will Rarely Fail. Viewed In This Light, The Necessity Of Labor Is Not A Chastisement, But A Blessing,--the Very Root And Spring Of All That We Call Progress In Individuals And Civilization In Nations.
