Excerpt from Liberty and Progress
To-day the air is full of reforms - well-considered reforms, ill-considered reforms, and reforms not considered at all.
Their variety is legion, their qualities as varied, but all have one common characteristic, the spending more money - other people's money - and as an inspiration it might be suggested that the greatest and most wanted reform of all is to reflect more and scatter less.
In the following pages no new gospel is preached, no new suggestion made, and probably at most will only be found old truths re-stated and forgotten teachings re-enforced; but apart from the freshness thus imparted, no other novelty is introduced.
