Excerpt from Our Church: What Methodists Believe, and How They Work You notice that the sculptor was leading, apparently, two distinct lives: the life of the real, that which he wrought, and the life of the ideal, the dream of perfection that was within his soul. We are all alike, though only a few men are great, and most of us are ordinary people. Every one of us, young and old, is leading these two distinct, yet inter-related lives. There is the life of the real - the things we do, the words we speak, the life we live 3 that life which we ourselves often feel is so poor, and narrow, and common; that life the vulgar mass called work, which others look upon and measure with the world's coarse thumb and finger, as Browning says.
