"Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century:
Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others;
Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected;
Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it;
Refusing to set aside trivial preferences;
Neglecting development and refinement of the mind;
Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do."

Full diced calf, with gilt titles & gilt decorated raised bands; all edges marbled. Spine ends a bit rubbed, a few spines very faintly marked. A very nice set.
