Excerpt from Out in the World No matter to what extent this culture of man's natural mind may go, the good exterior will only be an assumed beauty. The root will draw nutrition from the soil of selfishness. Out in the world, the man may counterfeit the saintliest virtues. At home, he will be what he is; and the reactions of home, if against his weaknesses and desires, will give another form to his life - hard, harsh, angry; it may be cruel. He will not prefer another to himself; as on the social plane, where he bids for fair Opin ions; he will not yield, in seeming bland good nature, the point of argument; will not consider and excuse faults of character nor read human nature against himself.
