Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle, Vol. 1 Versatility, for the capacity to work whensoever, where soever, and howsoever work is wanted, with a certain falling short of the best things. All things are double, one against the other and the only consola tion that I know for those who are with the lower talent is that they can at least recognise the higher genius, and that they need not fall either into the error which keeps a man from producing any work at all because he is in this or that way precluded from producing the greatest, or into complacent acquiescence in mere hack-work - in scamped, in ignorant, and in Philistine book-making.
