He did no work himself and was a dyspeptic. He tried to force his diet upon us, and he made us as weak as he was. How many reformers there are who are trying to reshape the world to fit their own weakness. I never knew a theorist who wasn't a sick man. To-day we understand that we can't run a motor-car after the gasoline is played out. The burning of the oil in the engine gives the power.
The matter of maintaining this capability while attempting to reshape the force for a changing future is a major and daunting challenge not to be underestimated. These structural realities are exciting and offer a major opportunity for real revolution and change if we are able and daring enough to exploit them.
Ask their coöperation, and appeal to their good taste and affection not to mortify or humiliate you in your position of clergyman, by overstepping the bounds of decorum or discretion. Lead them to talk of their ambitions and desires, and, as consistently as you can, gratify them. Let your daughter come to me for a season. I will help to reshape and modify her ideals of enjoyment to some degree.
"Not a bit! But I guess my hat's about done for, without I can get it pressed over; and I d'know as this kind of straw doos press." "First-rate!" called the captain from above. "Never mind the hat." But the girl continued fondly trying to reshape it, while the old man fidgeted anxiously, and protested that he would be sure to be left.
But this morning's news has forced me to reshape my plans. Listen "In the early autumn of 1735, being then at the Court of Tuscany, I received sudden and secret orders to repair to Corte, the capital of Corsica, an island of which I knew nothing beyond what I had learnt in casual talk from the Count Domenico Rivarola, who then acted as its plenipotentiary at Florence.
But the advance of society has brought wider and finer applications: the claim of the whole community comes closer home; the principles which have been recognized within the church and the neighborhood must be carried on to reshape institutions, industries, the whole social organism. The moral idea is thus reaffirmed and extended, but how can man attain that ideal?
I believe that, if only we could shake off the fetters of a narrow and pedantic theory, and freely reshape our own system of import duties on principles of obvious common sense, we should be able at one and the same time to promote trade within the Empire, to strengthen our hands in commercial negotiations with foreign countries, and to render tardy justice to our home industries.
I do not know whether bad business is the result of bad financial methods or whether the wrong motive in business created bad financial methods, but I do know that, while it would be wholly undesirable to try to overturn the present financial system, it is wholly desirable to reshape business on the basis of service. Then a better financial system will have to come.
So it is likely to be with international coöperation. Fears and hopes now urge it upon a reluctant, incredulous world. But the beginnings scientific, legal, commercial, political timid and imperfect though they be, like our own early confederation, will work to reshape those who take part. Mutual understanding will increase with common action.
It appears that his zeal was thoroughly unaffected, and that the monuments and writings of the ancient world made upon him from the time of his arrival in Italy, an impression deep and powerful enough to reshape his life. With strange readiness he surrendered the stubborn Aragon to his brother, and devoted himself wholly to his new possessions.
