Insinuation is the faculty of recommending oneself to another by action or discourse
accompanied by a desire that the faculty should not be detected. It is the art of
ingratiation – the making oneself an object of sympathy, with a concealment of
the purpose.

Address is an instrument of insinuation – it is insinuation in a wider field of
thought and action.

Presence of mind is a power over one's own mind – it is the faculty of readily bringing
into view all the several considerations necessary to correct decision – it is that
which takes prompt measures for the prevention of evil.

Quickness of conception should have preceded presence of mind. It is a simple idea – it is implied in the idea of presence of mind.

Facility of expression can be no virtue – it is quickness of conception giving
language to its thought.
