Commonplace Book

'"...It is the most difficult thing in the world to say what one likes best until one is forty or thereabouts. All one's youth - which, I take it, extends to about forty - is passed experimentally in determining what one likes best, and one does not know till it is crystallized. By then also it is probably unattainable."'

from Scarlet and Hyssop by EF Benson (Chapter VIII)
