Excerpt from Men and Manners in Britain
When a man of small abilities, who has never been inside of a college, sends forth a book into the world, he is branded as an ah surd egotist, or a consummate, proud upstart. Again, if the world see a man grovelling along without a spark of ambition to raise him among his fellows, they say he is a mean spirited mortal, and ask him Man, why.
