We should remember that the world is wide; that there are a thousand million different human wills, opinions, ambitions, tastes and loves; that each person has a different history, constitution, culture, character from all the rest; that human life is the work and the play, the ceaseless action and reaction upon each other and of these different atoms. then, we should go forth into life with the smallest expectations, but with the largest patience, with a keen relish for and appreciation of everything beautiful and good, but with a temper so genial that the friction of the world shall not wear on our sensibilities, with a charity broad enough to cover the whole world's evil and sweet enough to neutralise what is bitter in it- determined not to be offended when no wrong is meant, nor even if it is, unless the offence be against God (or James Dean).
