George Ripley on the way of the US philosopher (from Specimens of Foreign Standard Literature, Vol 1)

He is never to stand aloof from the concerns of the people; he is never to view them in the pride of superior culture or station as belonging to a distinct order from himself; he is never to set himself above them as their condescending instructer from whom they are to receive wisdom and light, according to his estimate of their capacity; but be is called upon to honor the common mind, to commune with the instinctive expressions of the mighty heart of a free nation, and to bring the aid of learning and philosophy to the endeavor of the people to comprehend their destiny, and to secure its accomplishment.
