FROM LEON VERDIER, IN PARIS, TO PROSPER GOBAIN, AT LILLE. And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf that shall break it must die. Our greatest danger is that in the great leap from slavery to freedom we may overlook the fact that the masses of us are to live by the productions of our hands, and fail to keep in mind that we shall prosper in proportion as we learn to dignify and glorify common labour and put brains and skill into the common occupations of life; shall prosper in proportion as we learn to draw the line between the superficial and the substantial, the ornamental gewgaws of life and the useful. |
