“Whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do it well; whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself completely; in great aims and in small I have always thoroughly been in earnest.”
- Charles Dickens
I can’t help but admire Dicken’s passion. It’s his 200th birthday today, and I couldn’t let it pass without recognizing the man who charmed my study abroad with the lens of a Dickensian London, brought us so many great novels and words of wisdom, and wrote one of my favorite books, “Our Mutual Friend.”
