What reading level is Thoughts And Opinions of a Statesman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
40 THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS Letter XL VI. p. 173.
Berlin, May 21, 1825.
Whit- Sunday is of all festivals the most joy- ful, and the most elevating to the mind, with- drawing it from all trifling concerns, and prompt- ing more exalted hopes and firmer resolutions.
All festivals — from their origin, and from the circumstances in memory of which they are ce- lebrated — tend to strengthen our persistence in strenuous exertions and worthy employments; and even putting all religious considerations out o...f the question, they make a useful division in the year, whose monotonous uniformity would otherwise be wearisome. Life seems longer when it is thus thrown into small portions ; and this is more than a mere delusion of the imagination ; though even if it were nothing else it ought not to be despised. The mere reality of life would be wretchedly poor without the charms of fancy ; which, though it may often bring causeless fears as well as empty hopes in its company, yet of- tener gives a bright and pleasing colouring to its delusions than a dark one.
