　　On Saturday morning, April 15, 1865,Abraham Lincoln lay dying in a hall bedroom of a cheap lodging house directly across the street from Ford’s Theater,where Booth had shot him.As Lincoln lay dying, people said,“There lies the most perfect ruler of men that the world has ever seen.”What was the secret of Lincoln’s success in dealing with men?I studied the life of Abraham Lincoln for ten years,and devoted all of three years to writing and rewriting a book entitled Lincoln the Unknown.I believe I have made as detailed and exhaustive a study of Lincoln’s personality and home life as it is possible for any human being to make.I made a special study of Lincoln’s method of dealing with men.Did he indulge in criticism?Oh, yes. He not only criticized but he wrote letters and poems ridiculing people and dropped these letters on the country roads where they were sure to be found.

　　One of these letters aroused resentments that burned for a lifetime.In the autumn of 1842,he ridiculed a vain Irish politician by the name of James Shields.Shields, sensitive and proud, boiled with indignation.He challenged Lincoln to fight a duel.Lincoln didn’t want to fight,but he couldn’t get out of it and save his honor.On the appointed day,he and Shields prepared to fight to the death,but at the last minute,their seconds interrupted and stopped the duel.This accident taught Lincoln an invaluable lesson in the art of dealing with people.Never again did he write an insulting letter.

　　Never again did he ridicule anyone.And from that time on,he almost never criticized anybody for anything.Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain — and most fools do.But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving.A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little man.

　　Let’s face it — English is a crazy language.There is neither egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger;neither apple nor pine in pineapple.English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France.Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.We take English for granted.But if we explore its paradoxes,we find that quicksand can work slowly,boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.If the plural of tooth is teeth,why isn’t the plural of booth beeth?

　　One goose, two geese.So one moose, two meese?Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend,that you comb through annals of history but not a single annal?If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them,what do you call it?Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylumfor the verbally insane.In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital?Ship by truck and send cargo by ship?Have noses that run and feet that smell?

　　Park on driveways and drive on parkways?How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same,while a wise man and wise guy are opposite?How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell another?English was invented by people, not computers,and it reflects the creativity of the human race.That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible,but when the lights are out, they are invisible.And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it,but when I wind up this essay, I end it.

　　Before the 1850s, the United States had a number of small colleges,most of them dating from colonial days.They were small, church connected institutions whose primary concern was to shape the moral character of their students.Meanwhile, throughout Europe, institutions of higher learning had developed.In German university was concerned primarily with creating and spreading knowledge, not morals.Between mid-century and the end of the 1800s,more than nine thousand young Americans,dissatisfied with their training at home,went to Germany for advanced study.Some of them return to become presidents of venerable colleges —Harvard, Yale, Columbia — and transform them into modern universities.

　　The new presidents broke all ties with the churches and brought in a new kind of faculty.Professors were hired for their knowledge of a subject,not because they were of the proper faith and had a strong arm for disciplining students.Drilling and memorizing were replaced by the German method of lecturing,in which the professors own research was presented in class.With the establishment of the seminar system,graduate student learned to question, analyze, and conduct their own research.At the same time,the new university greatly expanded in size and course offerings,breaking completely out of the old,constricted curriculum of mathematics, classics, rhetoric, and music.

　　The president of Harvard pioneered the selective system,by which students were able to choose their own course of study.The notion of major fields of study emerged.The new goal was to make the university relevant to the real pursuits of the world.Paying close attention to the practical needs of society,the new universities trained men and women to work at its tasks,with engineering students being the most characteristic of the new system.Students were also trained as economists, architects,agriculturalists, social welfare workers, and teachers.
