Excerpt from On Compromise It is pretty plain that an inquiry of this kind needs to be fixed by reference to a given set of social circumstances tolerably well understood. There are some common rules as to the expedi ency of compromise and conformity, but their application is a matter of endless variety and the widest elasticity. The interesting and useful thing is to find the relation of these too vague rules to actual conditions to transform them into practical guides and real interpreters of what is right and best in thought and conduct, in a special and definite kind of emergency. According to the current assumptions of the writer and the preacher, the one commanding law is that men should 'eling to truth and right, if the very heavens fall. In principle this is universally accepted. To the partisans of authority and tradition it is as much a commonplace as to the partisans of the most absolute and unflinching rationalism.

Excerpt from The Foe of Compromise, and Other Essays Surely, they were right. The analogy of nature, common sense, the experience of man kind, crystallized in proverbs, and all the digui fied and honored usage of our human societies ranged themselves on their side. And yet, we did not rest in the peace which they had made. Their contemporary, Garrison, the abolitionist, must have known that all these things were against him; he must have felt how harshly the strife he brought into our Republic of wel fare and opportunity broke in upon the soft music which ears like Choate's were harking for. Nevertheless, he went on: and soon there was war and death and mourning in the land. Some said that the outcome proved compromise a fail ure; more said, it was the fault of Garrison and of the other extremists on both sides. There was peace again, at last: a sure peace for the Republic; surer and deeper for some hundreds of' thousands of young men in blue and gray uniforms, mourned a while by their young wives and sweethearts, -mourned without ceasing by dim-eyed mothers. The end of compromise and the end of warfare were the same. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Purchase Price: Or the Cause of Compromise "Madam, you are charming! You have not slept, and yet you smile. No man could ask a better prisoner." She turned to him, smiling faintly. "I thank you. At least we have had breakfast, and for such mercy I am grateful to my jailer. I admit I was famished. What now?" With just the turn of a shoulder she indicated the water front, where, at the end of the dock on which they stood, lay the good ship, Mount Vernon, river packet, the black smoke already pouring from her stacks. In turn he smiled and also shrugged a shoulder. "Let us not ask! My dear lady, I could journey on for ever with one so young and pleasant as yourself.

Excerpt from No Compromise, Vol. 3 of 3 The long anxious night was over, and a dull, grey day followed, which seemed only like mitigated darkness. Uninviting as it was to most people, Miss Witherington trudged bravely down to an early Celebration, and hearing of Mrs. Montague's illness, came on straight to The Priory to ask after her old friend. Jack saw her slight figure, in a brown dress trimmed with fur, pass the window, and immediately got up from his untasted breakfast. The door was ajar, and, listening intently, he could hear everything she said in her pleasant, fresh young voice.

Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

Excerpt from No Compromise, Vol. 2 of 3 Gradually a crust Of whims and fancies had grown over what was really a warm and loving heart, and as the outside world never came in contact with anything but this crust, most people set her down as a very disagreeable person, and gave her credit for few even passable qualities. She was a good wife, an excellent mother, and a kind mistress; and yet she made herself like a blister to all those who were nearest and dearest.
