THE WRITINGS OF WILLIAM DEAN HOWELLS
 |
Absolutely, so positively, so almost
aggressively truthful
Account of one's reading is an account of
one's life
Affections will not be bidden
Beginning to grow old with touching courage
Book that they are content to know at
second hand
Christianity had done nothing to improve morals
and conditions
Clemens was sole, incomparable, the Lincoln of
our literature
Comfort from the thought that most things cannot
be helped
Contemptible he found our pseudo-equality
Critical vanity and self-righteousness
Critics are in no sense the legislators of
literature
Despair broke in laughter
Dickens rescued Christmas from Puritan distrust
Didn't reason about their beliefs, but
only argued
Disbeliever in punishments of all sorts
Even a day's rest is more than most people
can bear
Everlasting rock of human credulity and folly
Exchanging inaudible banalities
Fear of asking too much and the folly of asking
too little
For most people choice is a curse
Forbear the excesses of analysis
Gift of waiting for things to happen
Got out of it all the fun there was in it
Government is best which governs least
Habit of saying some friendly lying thing
He was not bored because he would not be
He had no time to make money
He's so resting
|
 |
He's the same kind of a man that he was a boy
Heighten our suffering by anticipation
Heroic lies
His readers trusted and loved him
I do not think any man ought to live by an art
If one were poor, one ought to be deserving
If he was half as bad, he would have been too
bad to be
Incredible in their insipidity
Industrial slavery
Lewd literature seems to give a sanction to
lewdness in the life
Lie, of course, and did to save others from
grief or harm
Life alone is credible to the young
Livy: Well, if you are to be lost, I want to be
lost with you
Livy Clemens: the loveliest person I have
ever seen
Luxury of helplessness
Married Man: after the first start-off he
don't try
Meet here to the purpose of a common ostentation
Morbid egotism
My reading gave me no standing among the boys
Neatness that brings despair
Never paid in anything but hopes of paying
Never saw a dead man whom he did not envy
New England necessity of blaming some one
None of the passions are reasoned
NYC, a city where money counts for more and
goes for less
Old man's disposition to speak of his
infirmities
Pathetic hopefulness
|
 |
Plain-speaking or Rude Speaking
Praised it enough to satisfy the author
Pseudo-realists
Public wish to be amused rather than edified
Real artistocracy is above social prejudice
Reformers, who are so often tedious and
ridiculous
Refused to see us as we see ourselves
Shackles of belief worn so long
She liked to get all she could out of her
emotions
Society interested in a woman's past,
not her future
Teach what they do not know
Somewhat too studied grace
Sunny gayety of self-forgetfulness
Secretly admires the splendors he affects to
despise
Self-satisfied, intolerant, and hypocritical
provinciality
Submitted, as people always do with the trials
of others
Tediously analytical
They are so many and I am so few
Truth is beyond invention
Used to ingratitude from those he helped
Vacuous vulgarity
We did not know that we were poor
We're company enough for ourselves
What we thought ruin, but what was really
release
When she's really sick, she's better
Wonder why we hate the past so?--"It's so
damned humiliating!"
You can't go back to anything
You may do a great deal(of work), and not get on
You marry a man's future as well as his past
You cannot be at perfect ease with a friend who
does not joke
|

Wonderful to me how it should remain so unintelligible
Words of learned length and thundering sound
Work gives the impression of an uncommon continuity
Work not truly priced in money cannot be truly paid in money
World made up of two kinds of people
World seems to always come out at the same hole it went in at!
World's memory is equally bad for failure and success
Worldlier than the world
Worst came it was not half so bad as what had gone before
Wrote them first and last in the spirit of Dickens
You can't go back to anything
You cannot be at perfect ease with a friend who does not joke
You may do a great deal(of work), and not get on
You marry a man's future as well as his past
You were not afraid, and you were not bold; you were just right

Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we usually do not
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
even years after the official publication date.
Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A
preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
and editing by those who wish to do so.
Most people start at our Web sites at:
http://gutenberg.net or
http://promo.net/pg
These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
can get to them as follows, and just download by date. This is
also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the
indexes our cataloguers produce obviously take a while after an
announcement goes out in the Project Gutenberg Newsletter.

Or /etext02, 01, 00, 99, 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90
Just search by the first five letters of the filename you want,
as it appears in our Newsletters.
Information about Project Gutenberg (one page)
We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The
time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. Our
projected audience is one hundred million readers. If the value
per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
Here is the briefest record of our progress (* means estimated):
