Excerpt from The Patchwork of Reflection
Most works of art when they are seen, at once please or dissatisfy. Not so with books; they require a medium for their sale. Readers do not inquire about a book until they hear or read some comments upon it; and better that its contents were roundly abused, than that it Should drop still-born from the press, for in matters Of taste, that which gives offence to one, and is strongly set down, yields approval to another, and is as strongly upheld, while both may agree on the moral of the design. Hence it is variety of subjects has the greatest chance of success.
