หน้า 9 - De minoribus rebus principes consultant ; de majoribus omnes : ita tamen, ut ea quoque, quorum penes plebem arbitrium est, apud principes pertractentur.
หน้า 191 - And feel'st not, thronging To head and heart, the force, Still weaving its eternal secret, Invisible, visible, round thy life ? Vast as it is, fill with that force thy heart, And when thou in the feeling wholly blessed art, Call it, then, what thou wilt, — Call it Bliss ! Heart ! Love ! God ! I have no name to give it ! Feeling is all in all : The Name is sound and smoke, Obscuring Heaven's clear glow.
หน้า 216 - In a notice of this kind scant justice can be done to a work like the one before us; no short resume can give even the most meagre notion of the contents of these volumes, which contain no page that is superfluous, and none that is uninteresting To understand the Germany of to-day one must study the Germany of many yesterdays, and now that study has been made easy by this work, to which no one can hesitate to assign a very high place among those recent histories which have aimed at original research.
หน้า 119 - There is reason enough for suspicion. ' We must guard for half a century,' said the grim Von Moltke, ' the possessions we have acquired in half a year.' These possessions — Alsace-Lorraine — may indeed before many years are over be again the fruitful source of discord. Despite the efforts of Germany — skilful efforts as we shall see, and not always unjust — Alsace and Lorraine have not yet become German in sympathies. Will they one day be French again ? This appears to me less probable than...
หน้า 226 - MAY I join the choir invisible Of those immortal dead who live again In minds made better by their presence : live In pulses stirred to generosity, In deeds of daring rectitude, in scorn For miserable aims that end with self. In thoughts sublime that pierce the night like stars, And with their mild persistence urge man's search To vaster issues.
หน้า 163 - ... gazed on me with a shocked and terrified look, as if he were about to exclaim, " How bloodthirsty you are ! " In reference to the arbitrary powers with which the Chancellor has got himself invested to put down Socialism, a well-informed writer remarks : ' If he has made a larger use of them than was expected, it is supposed he either really believes in a grave international conspiracy to threaten Sovereigns and society, or that he is desirous of provoking an emeute while the army can yet be relied...
หน้า 99 - ... time. They portrayed to the labouring classes their own misery. They held up to them in glaring contrast the prosperity of the rich — not only of the nobles, but of all capitalists. They insisted that the whole organisation of the State and of society aimed only at benefiting these, and crushing still further the interests of the wage-getting. They inveighed against the military system, which rendered the burdens of the poor still harder to endure. They showed very plainly how foreign conquest...
หน้า 108 - Socialism : they read in the acceptance of its doctrines the uprooting of families, continual anarchy, and the destruction of religion. To avoid such terrors they hold all measures are just, and they are short-sighted enough to believe that the bill will really accomplish permanently the ends at which it aims. ' The well-wishers of Germany could indeed desire that the opposition to the existing despotism had come from other sources and in other ways. But Socialism may end in something better, and...
หน้า 105 - I'MP.;V| the Prussian misgovernment at home. In the feverish war-cry, and in the terror that the beloved Rhine-territory might again be conquered by the old enemy, the voices that had complained against despotism were all silenced, and in the pseans that greeted the long recurrence of splendid victories the tones of discontent were heard no more. A vista of glad years of perfect contentment and serene happiness spread out before the hero-Emperor as all Germany bowed in adoration before him at Versailles....
หน้า 210 - and blew the foam of the approaching tide every year more wildly over the German land, the educated class hung with eye and heart on a small principality in the middle of Germany, where the great poets thought and sang as if in the profoundest peace, driving away dark presentiments with verse and prose. King and Queen guillotined — Reineke Fuchs. Robespierre with the Reign of Terror — Letters on the aesthetical Education of Man.
