Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

During twenty years I worked to deliver myself from what I retained of my education I read books, not so much to learn as to efface from my memory the ideas which had been thrust upon it.

It is only during the last fifteen years that I have really worked for the purpose of learning; but I have never found any one to teach me what I wanted to know.

I have had to be my own master, and in a way to educate myself.

I make notes in which I formulate my thoughts as they arise; I return three or four times to the same question, adding correo tions which amplify the original, and sometimes even transform it from top to bottom I only stop when I have exhausted the reserve of ideas stirred up by recent reading.

This work is very difficult for me; that is Why I like to take as my subject the discussion of a book by a good author: I can then arrange my thoughts more easily than when I am left to my own unaided efforts.
