The Principles of Success in Literature (1865)
Context: Literature is at once the cause and the effect of social progress. It deepens our natural sensibilities, and strengthens by exercise our intellectual capacities. It stores up the accumulated experience of the race, connecting Past and Present into a conscious unity; and with this store it feeds successive generations, to be fed in turn by them. As its importance emerges into more general recognition, it necessarily draws after it a larger crowd of servitors, filling noble minds with a noble ambition.
“The fleshless diet contributes to health and to a suitable endurance of hard work in philosophy.”

“To maintain good health requires good nutrition and a healthy dose of exercise.”
Erie Times, SportsWeek, March 3, 1986
