George Eliot to Sara Sophia Hennell, 15 November 1846. “Did you notice the review of Foster's life? I am reading the life and thinking all the time how Sara would like it. It is deeply interesting to study the life of a genius under circumstances amid which genius is so seldom to be found. Some of the thoughts in his journal are perfect gems.” GEL 1: 227
