This time I am writing to inform you that I shall not be sending you anything.
I have decided to abandon all literary work for a while in order to
devote more time to studying. The reasons for this are fairly plain. I
am young and self-taught in philosophy. I have learnt enough to form my
own viewpoint and, when necessary, to defend it, but not enough to be
able to work for it with success and in the proper way. All the greater
demands will be made on me because I am a “travelling agent”
