George Eliot on Human Nature
Title
George Eliot on Human Nature
Description
- "Human nature is lovable, and the way I have learnt something of its deep pathos, its sublime mysteries, has been by living a great deal among people more or less of the commonplace and vulgar, of whom you would perhaps hear nothing very surprising if you were to inquire about them in the neighborhood where they dwell."
