Lacon, Or Many Things in Few Words: Addressed to Those Who Think (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Lacon, or Many Things in Few Words: Addressed to Those Who Think

There are three difficulties in authorship - to write any thing worth the publishing - to find honest men to publish it - and to get sensible men to read it. Literature has now become a game; in which the Booksellers are the Kings the Critics, the Knaves the Public, the Pack; and the poor Author, the mere Table, or Thing played upon.
