But, I will say no more on the subject. I have allowed you to have the
free benefit of my opinions--such as they are--at your private
valuation, no discount allowed!
You don't seem pleased--what is it that you say?
You want to hear about my doings; and not my opinions?
Bless me! How very impatient you are. I was only just going to
continue my story!
How can you hear about me without hearing my opinions also?
I dare say they may not appear palatable to you. There is no accounting
for tastes; and, as you probably know, "veritas odium parit!"
Still, you cannot separate a man and his opinions; they are inseparable.
Fancy an individual without an opinion of his own!
Why, he would be a nonentity--a thing!
Don't talk nonsense.
