Description:Excerpt from Life of Benjamin F. Butler Biography is the meat and marrow of history. Eliminate personality from the chronicles of a nation, and they would disappear from active society. What to us were a history of Greece, without a record of the lives of Socrates, of Pericles, and Xenophon; of Rome, without Caesar, Cicero, and Seneca; of England, without Shakspeare, Cromwell, and Newton; or of America, without Washington, Franklin, Lincoln, and other immortal spirits whose courage and wisdom laid the foundations of this grand Republic, and whose statesmanship and patriotism have preserved it? The virtues are but glittering generalities, beautiful abstractions, not active forces, until incarnated in human form. Men endowed with intelligence, patriotism, integrity, philanthropy, courage, in large measure, are by that fact ordained representatives of grand ideas, accepted leaders of their fellows; and when the times are right for a bold forward march in the never-ending campaign of progress, or a vigorous assault upon the ever-existing strongholds of injustice and oppression, the masses find their leaders, and follow them to victory.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
