Tatsächliche Liebe ist der spontane Sproß des Gemüts; keine Großmut kann sie erkaufen, kein Verdienst sie erhöhen, noch irgendwelche Feinsinnigkeit ihr Dauer verleihen.

I found this awesome book at my favorite coffee shop/book store, The White Hart,
here in Lynchburg. It is a compilation of Oliver Goldsmith's works. I loved the cover of the book. It is absolutely beautiful and the inside is beautiful as well.
I had never read anything of his before but I really like it so far. I can't find a publishing date but there is an inscription on the inside from '85. A friend of mine who knows a good deal about books said it looked like the '40s. If you know if you know anything about it please let me know.
