It is usually the small-souled and narrow-minded man who can
decry faults and failings with an eagle eye, but upon whom
all the finer and grander qualities of humanity are lost. To
him who ever walks with head bent and eyes on the ground the
whole universe appears to be made of dust; but he who goes with
head erect and eyes uplifted breathes the pure air and greets
the rising sun, and forgets the dust that may be under his
feet.--Philadelphia _Ledger_.
(1884)
