Excerpt from Character-Shaping and Character-Showing
Hence it is, that whatever truths have made a profound impression on a man in the prog ress of his life-course are likely to make a correspondent impression on others who are like him, if he can bring those truths with any vividness before them. And when a series of related truths have excited interest in their detached separateness, they will hardly fail to excite fresh interest in their exhibited relation to one another and to a common central truth.
