Excerpt from Notes From Life in Six Essays: Money, Humility Independence, Wisdom, Choice in Marriage, Children, the Life Poetic
Some Of the notes were Originally made in verse; others were, from time to time, converted into verse, to serve the purposes of dramatic or poetic works in progress or in contemplation and I have not hesitated to quote the verses in illustration of the prose, as Often as the versified form seemed to give a reflection or an aphorism a better chance Of finding a resting-place in the memory of the reader.

Excerpt from Notes From Life in Six Essays: Money, Humility Independence, Wisdom, Choice in Marriage, Children, the Life Poetic
In the year 1836 I published a book called the 'Statesman,' a title much found fault with at the time, and in truth not very judiciously chosen. It contained the views and maxims respecting the transaction of public business, which twelve years of experience had suggested to me. But my experience had been confined within the doors of an office, and the book was wanting in that general interest which might possibly have been felt in the results of a more extensive and varied conversancy with public life. Moreover, the sub-sarcastic vein in which certain parts of it were written was not very well understood, and what was meant for an exposure of some of the world's ways was, I believe, very generally mistaken for a recommendation of them. I advert, now, to this book and its indifferent fortunes, because whatever may have been its demerits, my present work must be regarded as to some extent comprehended in the same design, - that, namely, of embodying in the form of maxims and reflections the immediate results of an attentive observation of life, - of official life in the former volume, - of life at large in this.
