A silent man is easily reputed wise. A man who suffers none to see him in the common jostle and undress of life, easily gathers round him a mysterious veil of unknown sanctity, and men honor him for a saint. The unknown is always wonderful.

About
Frederick William Robertson was born in London, UK. He, known as Robertson of Brighton, was an English clergyman who became widely popular particularly among the working class because of the oratory and psychological insight in his sermons preached from 1847 at Trinity Chapel, Brighton. Appealing to a broad religious consensus within Anglican belief by avoiding theological concepts, he advocated the reform ideas of the 1848 Revolution, but his views generated strong opposition. He graduated from Oxford University with the B.A. in 1841 and M.A. in 1844. He served as curate to several churches from 1840 to 1847.
