"'The Dublin Magazine' has been edited with good taste, and it is very agreeable reading, but to spea..." — George A. Moore

You will find in me a middle aged man with a career behind me sufficiently brilliant to enable me to talk about many things interestingly; and I am not an unkindly soul, I believe.

I have written 30,000 words in a month - think of it - 30,000! I hope I am putting the right number of naughts: an average of a thousand words a day! For thirty days!

The right I claim is that of every human being to speak what he believes to be the truth to whomever he may meet on his way.
