Excerpt from European Breezes
I, too, live two lives, as must every one who has gone over the Old World, one in this rushing, hurrying, beautiful America; the other in memories of dim aisles, before great canvases; hearing the soft, soothing music of Alpine falling streams; seeing, with closed eyes, the everlasting snow-crowned mountains, pressed by no human foot; walking, though motionless, through the green vineyards and in the happy valleys of the land of gleaming.
