young-people-brilliancy-antithesis-matteroffact-men-precision-naturally

Young people are dazzled by the brilliancy of antithesis, and employ it. Matter-of-fact men, and those who like precision, naturally fall into comparisons and metaphor.

As for the sublime, it is only great geniuses and those of the very highest order that are able to rise to its height.
