Excerpt from The Force of Truth: An Authentic Narrative
If a book Jo not apologize tor itself, it is in vain for the author to attempt it by a preface; I shall, therefore, only declare the nature and intent of this publication.
Indeed, it contains little more than the history of my heart, that forge of iniquity; and my conscience, that friendly, but too often neglected monitor. By men in general, this latter is hated, because, as far as informed, it boldly tells the truth: and their grand endeavour seems to be, to lay it asleep, or to render it as insensible as if seared with a hot iron.
