This book is recommended for anyone who is seeking to find greater peace and happiness in their life.Nature is very un-American. Nature never hurries. Every phase of her working shows plan, calmness, reliability, and the absence of hurry. Hurry always implies lack of definite method, confusion, impatience of slow growth. The Tower of Babel, the world's first skyscraper, was a failure because of hurry. The workers mistook their arrogant ambition for inspiration. They had too many builders, --and no architect. They thought to make up the lack of a head by a superfluity of hands. This is a characteristic of Hurry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
