Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fors Clavigera, Vol. 2: Letters to the Workmen and Labourers of Great Britain; Containing Letters XXV-XLVIII Among the letters just received by me, as I told you, is one from a working man of considerable experience, which laments that, in his part of the country, literary institutes are a failure. Indeed, your literary institutes must everywhere fail, as long as you think that merely to buy a book, and to know your letters, will enable you to read the book. Not one Word of any book is readable by you except so far as your mind is one with its author's, and not merely his words like your words, but his thoughts like your thoughts.
