All the world knows me in my book, and my book in me.
I seek in the reading of books, only to please myself, by an honest diversion.
He that I am reading seems always to have the most force.
And if nobody reads me, shall I have wasted my time, when I have beguiled so many idle hours with such pleasant and profitable reflections?
I go out of my way, but rather by license than carelessness.... It is the inattentive reader who loses my subject, not I. Some word about it will always be found off in a corner, which will not fail to be sufficient, though it takes little room.
