“If I had intended to seek the favor of the world, I should have adorned myself better and should present myself in a studied bearing. I wish to be seen in my simple, natural, and ordinary fashion, without effort or artifice, for it is myself that I portray. My defects will here be read to the life, and my natural form, as far as respect for the public has permitted. Had I lived among those nations which are said to live still in the sweet liberty of the first laws of nature, I assure you I should very gladly have portrayed myself here at full length and entirely naked. Thus, reader, I am myself the matter of my [words]; there is no reason for you to spend your leisure on so frivolous and vain a subject”
(Thank you, Montaigne)
A wee bit of historical commentary may be found in my "first" post most fittingly titled "We're All Mad Here"
