Samuel Johnson

“To talk in public, to think in solitude, to read and to hear, to enquire and answer enquiries, is the business of a scholar. He wanders about the world without pomp or terror, and is neither known nor valued but by men like himself.”

Samuel Johnson, The History of Rasselas, Prince of Abissinia
