I talk half the time to find out my own thoughts, as a school-boy turns his pockets inside out to see what is in them. One brings to light all sorts of personal property he had forgotten in his inventory. You don't know what your thoughts are going to be beforehand? said the "Member of the Haouse," as he calls himself. Why, of course I don't.
Why, said I, you have got hold of one of my own working axioms. I should like to hear you develop it. The Member of the Haouse said he should be glad to listen to the debate.
