Excerpt from Wise Saws and Modern Instances, Vol. 2 of 2Those words odd, and singular, and cc centric, what odd, singular, eccentric sort of words they are, reader! How often they mean nothing, being thrown out, as descriptions of character, by drivelling Ignorance, who scrapes them up as the dregs, the mere siftings left at the bottom of his vocabulary, when he has expended his scant collee tion of more definite images-in-syllables. And how much more Often are they affixed to the memories of the living or dead, who have been real brothers among men, and have thus earned these epithets from jaun diced envy, or guilty selfishness, or heartless pride and tyranny. How little it commends to us, either our common nature, or such corrupt fashioning as ages of wrong have given it, that, if we would be come acquainted with a truly good man, a being to love and to knit the heart unto, we must seek for him among the class of character which the world - woe worth it 1 - calls Odd, or singular, or eccentric.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
