Book excerpt: Excerpt from Morley Ernstein or the Tenants of the Heart, Vol. 1 of 3 It is my belief, that no person, who merely sits down to tell a story, will ever write what is deserving of the name of a good work. He may make it, perhaps, an amusing one - he may make it an interesting one, but it will never possess those qualities which impress a book deeply and lastingly on the memory of the reader, and raise the author high in the estimation of his fellow-men, unless there be the energetic purpose of inculcating, under the garb of fiction, some strong and peculiar truths with which the Writer's mind is powerfully im bued. It is then, and only then, that works of fiction become really valuable; and did I not hope-ay, and trust - that my own will have, and indeed have had, some influence upon the tone and character of a portion of my fellow men, I should feel strongly disposed not to write another line.
