Excerpt from Recollections and Reflections It is never worth while to publish writings which need not have been given to the world, and then to offer an apology for their publication. I do not seek, therefore, to excuse myself for writing this book. I will only say that nearly at the same time two firms of publishers applied to me for my memoirs, and soon afterwards the head of a third firm expressed his willingness to issue them. It has been a pleasure, not wholly free from sadness, to revive so many old associations. The experience of most people who have lived some time in the world is, I suppose, that they form, more or less unwittingly, certain conclusions which they themselves hold strongly, perhaps too strongly, and which they think may be of some use to others. If among my own conclusions there arc any which may be felt to suggest or emphasise the true course of public duty or wisdom, I cannot be sorry that I have made them known. But when I had finished the book, it was found to be a good deal longer than I had promised or the publishers had expected, and a part of the "Reflections" has, therefore, to my regret, been omitted. It will perhaps appear some day in another form. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Bygone Years: Recollections T has been often remarked that few men above the age of eighty retain any activity of mind. Although I have long passed that age, I do not perceive that my mind, which was never active, is less so than it was. What is gradually failing me is memory, and if I am to relate a few incidents of my life, I must do so at once. I cannot attempt to write an autobiography, but merely to jot down some recollections which may be found of interest. It is curious how uncertain memory becomes at an advanced age. Whilst I remember a number of unimportant events, I find it difficult to call to mind the broad outlines of my life. I can, therefore, only offer a disconnected account of it, for which I crave the indulgence of any one who may be inclined to glance over these pages. It may be extended to me because the whole of these recollections have been written since I attained my eighty-sixth birthday, and because I possess no notes or journals to assist me, except those from which I have taken descriptions of Spain, India and Russia, which I wrote at the request of my uncle, the Duke of Devonshire.

Excerpt from The Sere and Yellow Leaf: Thoughts and Recollections for Old and Young Tains and valleys of North Wales, where I have had the privilege of reading it, in its quiet simplicity and healthfulness and refreshment. So when an old friend, as I trust the authoress will allow me to call her, described the book to me, and asked me to say a few words by way of preface, I found it impossible to refuse, and so agreed to prove my rule (as other rules are proved) by an exception. The purpose of the little book cannot be better set forth than in words which I quote from its own pages: This is no manual for sickness, but simply an attempt at help ful thoughts as to how best our decline of life may be made profitable to our juniors (p.

Excerpt from College Recollections Dublin may be, they nevertheless imbibe, in their collegiate pursuits, a spirit which they-could not catch in the world. The respect which is insensie bly acquired and established for intellectual pre eminence, the hope of distinction, and the dread of, disgrace, cannot but mould all' generous minds into a character different from that which would be formed by mere intercourse with the world; and amongst those who are distinguished, or who aspire at distinction, there is a constant looking out towards the future, which gives to youth a character not naturally its own. From this habit of looking forward, at first, perhaps, no farther than to the time of college honours, then towards the distinctions and advantages in the world, -of which the academic successes were only 'encon raging omens, the youthful mind frequently'be comes invested with a portion of that dignity which is thought more properly characteristic of mature age, and affords a spectacle not often to be observed in the world; a young man in all the warmth and flush of opening life, not more affected by the passions and pleasures which would make him the captive of the present hour, .than by the visions and presentiments which would preserve him for the future.

Excerpt from Recollections of My Youth This it is which has given birth to the six chapters which make up the present volume. The recollections of my childhood do not pretend to form a complete and continuous narrative. They are merely the images which arose before me and the reflections which suggested themselves to me while I was calling up a past fifty years old, written down in the order in which they came. Goethe selected as the title for his memoirs Truth and Poetry, thereby signifying that a man cannot write his own biography in the same way that he would that of any one else. What one says of oneself is always poetical. To fancy that the small details of one's own life are worth recording is to be guilty of very petty vanity. A man writes such things in order to transmit to others the theory of the universe which he carries within himself. The form of the present w'ork seemed to me a convenient one for expressing certain shades of thought which my previous writings did not convey. I had no desire to furnish information about myself for the future use of those who might wish to write essays or articles about me.

Excerpt from Collections and Recollections But events, however striking, are only landmarks in memory. They are isolated and detached, and begin and end in themselves. The real interest of one's early life is in its Links with the Past, through the old people whom one has known. Though I place my first distinct recollection in 1856, I have memories more or less hazy of an earlier date.

Excerpt from A Grandmother's Recollections In the meantime, like all selfish persons, I considered what demeanor I should assume, in order to impress my grandmother with a con vieti on of my own consequence. Of course, dignified and unbending I would be; but what if she chose to consider me a child, and treat me accordingly? The idea was agonizing to my feelings but then I proudly surveyed my five feet two inches of height, and wondered how I could have thought of such a thing! Still I had sense enough to know that such a supposition would never have entered my head, had there not been suflicieut grounds for it; and, with no small trepidation, I prepared for my first appearance.
