Excerpt from The Ralston Brain Regime: Presenting a Course of Conduct, Exercises and Study, Designed to Develop Perfect Health in the Physical Brain, Strengthen the Mind, and Increase the Power of Thought There are too many books at the present day in the world, for the reason that there is too much theorizing.

The class of people who wish to progress, and they are a small class as far as numbers are concerned, require the aid of persons who can furnish them with a practical course of exercises to be performed, the performance of which shall cause a growth. We grow only by doing something; not by being advised or taught. Books are too large at the present day.

The remainder of the book was words, mere words. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
