Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contemporary Portraits: Fourth Series But what dreadful brainless reticence! The souls of great men, I have often said, are the Jacob's Ladder leading from Earth to Heaven: it is by knowledge of them, of their heart, and essence, and in being that the younger ones must grow in their turn, mounting rung by rung. To leave such a gap is nothing less than a crime - for this is the very quiddity and quintessence of Balzac.
