On why he undertook his autobiography:

"From the poverty and obscurity in which I was born, and in which I passed my earliest years, I have raised myself to a state of affluence and some degree of celebrity in the world. As constant good fortune has accompanied me even to an advanced period of my life, my posterity will perhaps be desirous of learning the means which I employed, and which, thanks to Providence, so well succeeded with me."
