As a training in intelligence it is harmful: it teaches a person to underestimate the value of evidence based on their other modes of ratiocination. It is the poorest form of mental exercise sheer verification; conjecture and observation are ruled out. A study of Chinese grammar would be far more valuable from the point of view of general education.
I did not then, nor do I now, underestimate the importance of the duty which an industrious staff officer may thus perform, and I had found it made personally pleasant by the even temper and appreciative justice of General Schofield's rule.
Parental bad judgment is one of the most frequent causes of misfits. Even when parents are sincere and try to be wise, choice of a child's life work is very difficult for them. In the first place, they either underestimate or overestimate their children. What parent, worthy of the high privilege, can be absolutely impartial in judging the talents of his child?
in order to compare them with the use made of the same by Webster when he made Vittoria at her trial exclaim: Casta est quam nemo rogavit! a comparison which at once reveals the gulf fixed between the clairvoyant dramatist and the mere pedantic scholar. And yet the subsequent history of pastoral reminds us that it is quite possible to underestimate Guarini's merits as a playwright.
I do not anticipate a collision. He is only an atrocious bully." "He is more than that. You underestimate him." The girl's face had darkened. Her lips were firmly compressed, and an angry fire burned in her usually soft eyes. Tresler, watching, read the hatred for Jake; read the hatred, and saw that which seemed so out of place in the reliant little face.
Now as Stuart sat across the table, she was rediscovering many little tricks of individuality which had endeared him as a lover, or perhaps been dear because he was her lover, and in the sum of these tremendous trifles lay a terrific danger which she did not underestimate. His presence would mean comparison; contrast between drab reality and rainbow longings.
Think of it the needless deaths of 15,000 women a "great underestimate"! Yet even this number means that virtually every hour of the day and night two women die as the result of childbirth in the healthiest and supposedly the most progressive country in the world. It is apparent that Dr.
He would not part with any of it. Any day that was yesterday would keep bringing what he needed. He knew that he had that little way. He said that he did not hear anything. He came to remember a country that had been seen. He was not the only one to have the meaning that a cold day that is darker is darker. He did not underestimate the last of production.
It is good to hear things like that though I think you underestimate your own strength. I am thankful if I have helped in any degree. I have felt futile enough. We all have. At any rate the strain is about over. The telegram must have been a knock down blow though. Where were you this afternoon?" "I don't know. I just drove like the devil anywhere. Did you worry? I am sorry. Good Lord!
Some came to me and asked permission to go, saying that they were tired of the war and would not be caught in the ranks again, and I bade them go. The actual number of Confederates at Fort Donelson can never be given with entire accuracy. The largest number admitted by any writer on the Southern side, is by Colonel Preston Johnston. He gives the number at 17,000. But this must be an underestimate.
