Born in Paris, on Jan. 25, 1874, where his father was solicitor to the British embassy, Somerset Maugham was orphaned by the time he was 8 years old. He was reared by a paternal uncle, a clergyman, and at 13 was sent to King's School, Cambridge, intended for Oxford and preparation for the Church. Wanting to write, he obtained his uncle's permission to go to Heidelberg for a time. He chose the profession of medicine and spent 6 years in training at a London hospital. A year as an intern in the Lambeth slums followed, but he never practiced. For 10 years he wrote and lived in poverty in Paris. In 1907 Maugham's first play

Extractions: British novelist, playwright, short-story writer and highest paid author in the world in the 1930s. Despite his popularity, Maugham did not gain serious recognition. This was expressed in his autobiography THE SUMMING UP (1938) where he writes that he stood 'in the very first row of the second-raters' . Maugham's skill in handling plot has been compared by critics to the manner of Guy de Maupassant. In many novels the surroundings are international and the stories are told in clear, economical style with cynical or resigned undertone. "I have never pretended to be anything but a story teller. It has amused me to tell stories and I have told a great many. It is a misfortune for me that the telling of a story just for the sake of the story is not an activity that is in favour with the intelligentsia. In endeavour to bear my misfortunes with fortitude."

http://www.phnet.fi/public/mamaa1/maugham.htm

Extractions: It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who have lost it. The unfortunate thing about this world is that good habits are so much easier to give up than bad ones. People ask for criticism, but they only want praise. Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. And my advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it. Imagination grows by exercise, and contrary to common belief, is more powerful in the mature than in the young. It's a funny think about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it. Only a mediocre person is always at his best. The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistic, and self-complacent is erroneous; on the contrary it makes them, for the most part, humble, tolerant, and kind. Failure makes people bitter and cruel. Love is only the dirty trick played on us to achieve continuation of the species. The ability to quote is a serviceable substitute for wit. It wasn't until quite late in life that I discovered how easy it is to say 'I don't know'. There is only one thing about which I am certain, and that is there is very little about which one can be certain.

This is the fantastic story of an English farm boy who grew up to become the founding genius of modern physics. His father died before he was born and his mother remarried when he was three years old. As a young child in the English countryside of Woolsthorpe, Newton (1642-1727) became interested in calculating the flow of water, making sundials and a water clock, and building windmills and watermills. There was little in his family background that would predict his later mathematical and analytic accomplishments. He was from a humble farming family and was encouraged to become a farmer. However, it was obvious to the family that he was not suited for farming. It is not clear who his mentors were, although his mother's brother, rector William Ayscough, sponsored Newton's entrance into Cambridge University to study for the Anglican ministry. Even at Cambridge there appear to have been few professors who were his mentors. He entered this university as a humble "subsizar," - one who performed menial tasks for upper class students. Although his mother was financially able to support him, she provided him with very little money for expenses. Newton struggled to survive by waiting on wealthier students. He became the protégée of a professor of mathematics, Isaac Barrow, who helped him develop his mathematical skills.
