There is explosive material【C4】______in most of us if we can only reach it. A good book or a good friend often excites【C5】______in great writers, even【C6】______entirely different subjects. We often find in books【C7】______we thought and felt, could we not have expressed ourselves. Indeed, we get【C8】______with ourselves in books. We【C9】______one feature in Emerson, another lineament in Shakespeare, an expression in Homer, a glimpse of ourselves in Dante, and so on【C10】______we spell out our whole【C11】______. True, we get many pleasing【C12】______of ourselves from fiends, many mirrored deformities from our enemies, and a characteristic here and there from the world; but in calm and【C13】______way we find the most of ourselves, our strength, our weakness, our limitations, our opinions, our tastes, our harmonies and【C14】______, our poetic and【C15】______qualifies, in books.

The best books are those which stir us up most and make us the most【C20】____________to do something and be something ourselves.
