What reading level is Lessons in Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many of these look forward to the day when posteritywill canonize them, and lift them to the glory of those who werenot received by their age because they were in advance of theirage. So they regard with contempt the pigmy world, wrap themantles of their mortified pride about them, and lie down in adelusive dream of immortality.
Whether the effect of devotion to a single idea be disastrous orotherwise to the devotees, nothing in all history is betterproved--nothing in all philosophy is more cle...arly demonstrable--than the fact that it is a damage to the idea. If I wished todisgust a community with any special idea, I would set a mantalking about it and advocating it who would talk of nothingelse. If I wished to ruin a cause utterly, I would submit it tothe advocacy of one who would thrust it into every man's face, whowould make every other cause subordinate to it, who would refuseto see any objections to it, who would accuse all opponents ofunworthy motives, and who would thus exhibit his absolute slaveryto it.
