Excerpt from Golden Thoughts From Sir Thomas Browne Sir Thomas Browne in casting a backward glance upon the first thirty years of his life found in them a miracle, "which, to relate, were not a history, but a piece of poetry, " that "would sound to common ears like a fable." His later writings and domestic correspondence seem to show that he found no cause to revise this early-formed estimate of what the world has to offer. He was possessed of that unerring instinct which tells a man how to live, how to glean from the passing moment its store of intellectual treasure, ho to consecrate each day to its particular interests and occupations. His philosophy was sound, his intelligence acute, and his mind capacious. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
