It entails no more difficulty than a similar trip to the Mediterranean than such a trip which to a learned and broad-minded observer offers the same chance for acquiring knowledge and, if he is himself gifted with wisdom, the same chance of imparting his knowledge to others that is offered by a trip of similar length through the larger cities of Europe or the United States.
As Cennick, however, still held to his point, they were compelled at last to let him out on bail; and Cennick soon after appealed for protection to Dr. Rider, Bishop of Down and Connor.

The superior man is broad-minded, and no partisan.
So enlightened a man as the great Minister Wen Hsiang "one of the most intelligent and broad-minded Chinese I ever knew," as Sir Robert Hart sometimes said frankly confessed this when speaking to the I.G. a few years after the inauguration of the Customs.
The Scherzo Op. 31, of Chopin, and the Liszt Rhapsodies he can hear in the concert room, where he can become familiar with most of the famous piano compositions. Why should he not learn to know many less hackneyed pieces, which do not so frequently appear on concert programs?

In one thing the President and his Secretary of State were in full accord, in keeping aloof from the labyrinth of European politics, and maintaining friendly intercourse with all nations.
