AUTHOR OF "THE HUMAN BOY"
"There are those who scoff at the school-boy, calling
him frivolous and shallow. Yet it was the school-boy
who said, 'Faith is believing what you know ain't
so.'"—Pudd'nhead Wilson's New Calendar.
"Man is more childish than woman. In the true
man there is a child hidden: it wanteth to play."—F. NIETZSCHE.
