AN OPINION ON CHANGE OF OPINION.
Bankim Chandra Chatterji, our Sir Walter Scott, was once reproached with fickleness on his declaring a change of views upon a certain matter; whereupon he observed, "He who has never been forced to change any pre-conceived opinion was born perfect which I was not; and he who has changed it, but does not avow the fact is a hypocrite which I do not wish to be."
