Underwoods Book by Robert Louis Stevenson

There are guys and classes of men who stand out from the general population: the soldier, the sailor, and the shepherd very seldom; the artist only occasionally; the clergyman even less frequently; the physician virtually always as the rule.

He is the flower (such as it is) of our civilization; and when that stage of man is over and only remembered to be marvelled at in history, it will be thought that he shared as little as any in the defects of the period and most notably exhibited the virtues of the race.

He is the flower (such as it is) of our civilisation; and when that stage of man is done with, and only remembered to be marvelled at in history. Generosity, such as is available to those who practise an art, but never to those who pursue a trade; discretion, tested by a hundred secrets; tact, tried in a thousand embarrassments; and, what are more important, Heraclean cheerfulness and courage.
