If we are disposed to esteem ourselves too highly, we shall be apt to allow others less than they deserve. We shall think no ceremony or respect, which others can show us, any thing more than what is due to our

Friendship, when it is sincere, is acknowledged by all to be a very fruitful source of happiness; but notwithstanding its value, we find this blessing to be very rare among mankind. True friendship requires a similarity of inclinations, a modest opinion of ourselves, and a sincere regard and love to the person befriended. And in proportion

It is the soil from which half the enjoyments

- The writings of Crevecoeur espouse the type of freethinking, industriousness, and morally minded spirit so often dictated by The Lucubrator’s author. In his famous essay, “What is an American?,” Crevecoeur asserts “We are all animated with the spirit of industry which is unfettered and unrestrained because each person works for himself” (2). This portrait of Americans, driven by a strong work

Interestingly enough, Noyes was around the same age as me and my classmates when The Lucubrator was written, which made me

- version of a Lucubrator essay suggests either that someone should have done a better job of bookkeeping or that the manuscript may not have been meant for the public. But, then again, I think my speculation that the manuscript’s essays were at one time printed to entertain and inform readers is a compelling one, for several reasons. Some of the essays are not dated in chronological order and others are given two dates, which may signify the dates on which they were printed elsewhere. Moreover, the essays are morally edifying. My favorite essay is one entitled “On Friendship.” After overcoming the difficulty of having to read literature in the original handwriting, you find that the author of The Lucubrator actually offers a rather beautiful description of true friendship. Phrases like “Friendship, when it is sincere, is acknowledged by all to be a very fruitful source of happiness,” or “When there is a dissimilarity of opinions or pursuits, there seldom exist any great degree of friendship; for that difference is apt to create disputes between each other, and people in general are too much attached to their own ways of thinking to respect another of different or opposite sentiments,” offer some insight and advice that is still very useful today. The same goes for the essays that offer criticism, such as “Propriety of Behaving with Moderation In Parties,”
