Description

“I have been fortunate to be born with a restless and efficient brain, with a capacity for clear thought and an ability to put that thought into words”

Souvenir typescript on an off-white 7 x 5 sheet, signed at the conclusion in blue ballpoint. In full: “I have been avid to learn and avid to teach. When I was seven years old, I taught my five year old sister to read. I have been fortunate to be born with a restless and efficient brain, with a capacity for clear thought and an ability to put that thought into words. Placing it all at the service of my avidity, I have published 237 books as of now and am well-thought of in consequence. As you see, none of this is to my credit. I am the beneficiary of a lucky break in the genetic-sweepstakes.” In fine condition. RR Auction COA.
