About this title.

“Endeavour to be always patient of the faults and imperfections of others, for you have many faults and imperfections of your own that require forbearance. If you are not able to make yourself that which you wish, how can you expect to mould another in conformity with your will!” —Thomas a Kempis The calm man lives intensely, feels intensely; but it is a conscious intensity consciously controlled. Holman Hunt, who painted The Light of the World, was once asked by an admirer the technique of drawing free-hand circles as perfect as his. “All you need to do,” he replied, “is to practise eight hours a day for forty years.”
