Oregon Influence Abroad
Heine’s Desire to Be a Great Orator.
I used to long to be a great ora­
tor, and often I used to declaim, like
Demosthenes, on the lonely sea­
shore as wind and waves howled
and roared; so a man exercises his
lungs and gets used to speaking
through the greatest uproar of a
popular assembly. Quite often I
used to speak in the fields to a large
number of cows and oxen, and I
used to succeed in outroaring the
collective bellowing of the beasts.
It is more difficult to speak to an
audience of sheep. Whatever you
say to these muttonheads, when
you urge them to free themselves
and not, like their forbears, to go
submissively to the slaughter house,
they only meet your every sentence
with a “Baa!” so unshakably placid
