Excerpt from About Men and Things: Papers From My Study Table Drawer

Nearly everybody, I suppose, has some object in life. There are, indeed, some persons that appear to float so aimlessly on the current of time, that you can scarcely say they have any object. They seem to be stirred by no stronger impulse than a sleepy liking for a lazy good time. Such persons I leave out of account now. The bulk of mankind, I take it, have something they aim at. Whatever difference there may be in the particular objects that different persons aim at, there is mostly something they desire to succeed in. What the most part of persons are most strongly bent upon is probably their own personal advantage, in one way or another, according to each one's taste or preference.
