Excerpt from Songs of the Free: A Collection of Essays, Poems and Stories
The great obstacle in the way of putting one's thoughts in writing is the difficulty in making one's purpose clearly understood. The reader is just as much interested in Why these ideas are expressed as What these ideas are. Mere barren statements are not enough; the purpose which they are to serve is of fundamental importance; and if the pur pose is clearly set forth at the outset there islittle doubt that the reader is likely to go as tray as to the meaning of the discourse.
