Excerpt from Among the Muses
Why should a book go about apologizing or seeking some excuse to offer in extenuation for having been brought into existence, any more than an individual? A greater power or a higher cumulative force than either brought each upon the stage of being.
Inasmuch, however, as there is an unwritten law of reciprocation between a publication and the reader, it seems befitting that a new work should be given such preliminary unfoldings as naturally urge themselves upon the projector.
