...read strange and uncommon books. Be unusual in your tastes. Be any thing rather than nothing. You must keep prominently before people's eyes at any cost; for so long as you are notorious there is some hope of your becoming famous. Above all, keep trying. You will sometimes feel like relaxing for a moment, and saying or doing something natural. Don't! It would be ruinous. The chances are ten to one you would say something commonplace, and that's a cardinal sin, you know. Above all, keep trying...

Good Heavens! what do I know? - or rather, what don't I know? At a Greek reading, I can tell you the style of worm they used for fishing...
...delightful firstevening in the poet's pleasant home. Mrs. Tennyson is a most charming woman, and if the poet himself is not quite so cordial in his manners, I must attribute this to his fine poetic sensibilities. What he said and did during the evening, however, I do not feel at liberty to relate; I trust I have never been guilty of invading any person's private rights or of satisfying a vulgar curiosity. One incident, at least, I will relate before I conclude this already lengthy paper...
