unless where where those interests are not too large and too
close at hand not to be irresistible. You were
not over fond of school in your youth, and you

rather and much rather that justice should
suffer a little than that you yourself should
suffer to the degree in which you must suffer

where the interest of the public is concerned,
what you desire is not wisdom but the reputation
of being wise. By discarding your
prejudices what all that you gain is the useless drug

to your prejudices what you preserve and perhaps
augment is that valuable treasure called the reputation
for wisdom. Keep to your prejudices
and you may still please yourself with the
thoughts
