Excerpt
Excerpt: It is a very wholesome and regenerating change which a man undergoes when he ?comes to himself.? It is not only after periods of recklessness or infatuation, when he has played the spendthrift or the fool, that a man comes to comes to himself. He comes to himself after experiences of which he alone may be aware: when he has left off being wholly preoccupied with his own powers and interests and with every petty plan that centers in himself; when he has cleared his eyes to see the world as it is, and his own true place and function in it.
