Excerpt from How to Become Quick at Figures: Comprising the Shortest, Quickest, and Best Methods of Business CalculationsIt has been truly said that the great want of the age is men. Men of thought men of action. Men who are not for sale. Men who are honest to the heart's core. Men who will condemn wrong in friend or foe - in themselves as well as others. Men whose consciences are as steady as the needle to the pole. Men who will stand for right if the heavens totter and the earth reels. Men who can tell the truth and look the world and the devil right in the eye. Men who neither swagger nor ¿inch. Mm who are Quick at Figures. Men who can have courage without whistling for it, and joy without shouting to bring it. Men through whom the current of everlasting life runs still, and deep and strong. Men too large for certain limits, and too strong for sectarian bands. Men who know their message and tell it. Men who know their duty and do it. Men who know their place and fill it. Men who mind their own business. Men who will not lie. Men who are not too lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor. When in othee, the workshop, in the counting-room, in the bank, in every place of trust and responsibility, we can have such men as these, we shall have a christian civiliza tion - the highest and best the world ever saw.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
