"Know thyself" was a dictum of Socrates that should precede the command "Be true to thyself," because it is a prerequisite to it. But if it takes a literary genius to reveal our thoughts to us, as it often does, certainly the average person will not discover his own characteristics alone.
But none the less, it is wise to recognise the limits at each stage, and not try to tell any story to which the honest inner consciousness says, "I do not like you." Let us then set down as a prerequisite for good story-telling, a genuine appreciation of the story. Now, we may suppose this genuine appreciation to be your portion.
Another alleged prerequisite for Blue Vein membership was that of free birth; and while there was really no such requirement, it is doubtless true that very few of the members would have been unable to meet it if there had been.

How many foot-pounds of energy do you suppose you annually dump into the scrap-heap of wasted effort? What does this mean to you in dollars and cents? In conscious usefulness? In peace and happiness?

"However, I'll be specific it's time to be specific, you would say; though I might respond that you've known all along what my business is with you." "The name of an individual is a prerequisite to the transaction of business," he interposed. "You do not know me, Mr. Harleston." "Hence, your name?" "When we meet, you'll know me by my voice."
The only prerequisite for a position in some schools of education seems to be a degree of a certain altitude without any reference to real teaching ability. =Statistics versus children.= Such teaching palliates educational situations without affording a solution. It is so steeped in tradition that it resorts to statistics as it would consult an oracle.
