ON: AUTOBIOGRAPHIES


OSCAR WILDE OBSERVES
To write an autobiography is to declare that the story of one’s life is worth more than the deaths of several trees.  The validity of the judgment depends more upon the quality of the trees than of the person.

MARK TWAIN REMARKS
I would rather read my own autobiography than write it.  I would then rearrange the circumstances of the final chapter to avoid the conclusion, and gain additional time.
