Daily Dose

From Thomas Carlyle: A History of His Life in London 1834 - 1881, by James Anthony Froude

I SEEM

"I seem to myself at present, and for a long while past, to be sunk deep, fifty miles deep, below the region of articulation, and, if I ever rise to speak again, must raise whole continents with me."

From Chapter XI, 'Past and Present'
