her life, with its shortcomings and humiliations,
as well as with its greatness and its triumphs,
I may have reduced these dimmensions to more
ordinary proportions. But keeping in view the
task I had undertaken, to try to represent her as
I knew she wished to be seen and understood, I
have considered it very important to point out
the ordinary human features in her portrait,
which brought her nearer to the level of other
women, making her their equal, not an
exception—thus confirming the rule that the heart is
the essential part, not only in a woman’s, but in
human nature, and that the ablest and the
least gifted can meet in this focus of all human
life.
