I know where to go, and where not to go, and what I can stand. And I don’t need any pledge. And if I want to smoke a cigar I can smoke one, and there stop. And I can read one bad book and no more, if I set my heart upon it. And I can spend an hour with Jim Brown and not swear, even if he does. What’s the use of a fellow’s going to excess every time? Why can’t he have a little of these things even if they are not quite so good, and stop just where one wants to?” Yes, but nine chances to one, the boy will keep coming nearer and nearer to Danger Cliff, and then in an instant his head will whirl, and over he will go and disappear in darkness forever....FROM THE BOOKS.
