To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

There ceased to be any such thing as a solid jungle of plodding fact. Every turn was now, with him, a turn into radiant vistas* He made Theodore Roosevelt the most interesting thing in the world* He seemed to do so. But when one had gone away from him one found that what he had really done was to make the world itself momentarily immortally interesting* He was the prism through which the light of day took on more colors than could be seen in anybody else s com pany* Him I can remember, and him ...I can carry with me in remembrance* But with him are buried a million gleaming patterns and pageants I now shall never see.
He was instinctive energy ; and he was creative curiosity; and he went on then to his greatest greatness. This insatiable taster of life never fell into the heresy which damns the taster* He knew there were poisons* He set them down from his lips. And he knew the pit in which even the inno cent but indiscriminate thirst of all life and of all sensation becomes a poison ous quicksand* He leaped over it* He might have been the greatest dilettante of his day* He might have been* in mind and in body* its greatest dandy* He might have been the most promiscuous absorber of its offerings* He became the most girded pursuer of its activities* He girt himself with choices and denials* The heresy of self-expression as an end* the heresy of self-development as an end* he met and conquered* Having perceived what things make life run on in joy forever* even when the joy of the runner is gone, he chose such things* Things different he left* He perceived them, but he left them* He had a genius for the whole of life* but he had an even greater genius for the whole some* With him one seemed to roam the world without limit and yet to return without soil* To be sophisti cated to the very verge of the ultimate human abyss and yet to be as clean as a clean animal that was his most extraordinary achievement and his most extraordinary legacy in the pos sibilities of the art of living* He lived* and he lived abundantly* he lived ex uberantly* with all his universality* within submissions* He submitted to the continuing life of the individual and of the family and of what is greater than the family* And to that greater thing he gave his supreme submission.
