"One thing is dead sure: in another generation there can be no living by dreaming and scheming of art; only those having wealth can indulge in the luxury of writing books for their own pleasure." Hearn's philosophy of life, the daily human habit of the man, as revealed in these letters to a few chosen friends, is not less racy and interesting than his literary side, and it shows him in genial, lovable aspects that will surprise many who yet recall the old libels upon his personal character. He had strong native wit (of which he was too sparing in his formal literary productions), and, for a dreamer, astonishing shrewdness of observation.

One cannot resist the belief-of which indeed there is no lack of testimony-that he was a true friend, a fond husband and father, and a genuine lover of humanity.
