What reading level is Living Words book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is a grave idea of heaven to conceive it as one set of external circumstances, which we attain by escaping from another set here below. It is a crude religiousness which seeks to glorify the future life by depreciating this, or that villi- fies the body in order to exalt the soul. It is a great mistake to confound extatic feehngs and super-mundane moods with essential righteousness.
116 LIVING WORDS.
Self-conceit and haughtiness, or fulness of soul, are barriers to progress. They are general...ly the landmarks of a shallow attainment. The true man never surfeits upon his attainments, but probes his deficiencies and sum- mons his ideals.
The world is generally a reflex of ourselves. If you find a man disposed to complain of the coldness of the •world, you will find that he has never brought anything into the world to warm it, but is a personal lump of ice set in the midst of it. If you find a man who complains that the world is all base and hollow, tap him, and he will probably ring base and hollow.
