To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Boswell tells us that Smith once said toSir Joshua Reynolds that he made it a rule in company never to talk ofwhat he understood, and he alleges the reason to have been that Smithhad bookmaking ever in his mind, and the fear of the plagiarist everbefore his eyes. But the fact thus reported by Boswell cannot beaccepted exactly as he reports it, and his explanation cannot beaccepted at all. Men able to converse on a variety of subjects willnaturally prefer to converse on those unconnected with th...eir own shop, because they go into company for diversion from their own shop, butit is a question of company and circumstances. If Smith ever made anysuch rule as Boswell speaks of, he certainly seems to have honoured itas often by the breach as by the observance, for when his friendsbrought round the conversation to his special lines of research, henever seems to have failed to give his ideas quite freely, nay, as maybe seen from the remark just quoted from Henry Mackenzie, not freelymerely but abundantly--as many as would make a book.
