The characteristic of genuine hero
ism is its persistency. All men have
wandering impulses, fits and starts of
generosity. But when you have re-
solved to be great abide by yourself,
and do not weakly try to reconcile
yourself to the world. The heroic
cannot be the common, nor the COM
mon the heroic. If you would serve
your brother, because it is fit for you
to serve him. do not take back your
words when you find that prudent peo-
pie do not commend you. Be true
to your own act, and congratulate
yourself If you have done something
strange and extravagant, and broken
the monotony of decorous age. 1t
