Excerpt from Philosophers and Fools a Study
Believing that the study of Man is the most ennobling and satisfying of all human pursuits, it is natural that I should desire to lead others to the same conclusion.
My aim then, dear reader, is not to enlighten still less to bore you with moral truisms or platitudes - but simply to ask you to examine with me 'those earnest questions upon a solution of which so large a portion of happiness and misery depends.
In this spirit I present the volume, remarking merely that were it withheld until personal judgment pronounced it finished, it would probably never appear.
