A friend Neville believed truly understood his teaching drifted, as people do after time away, back toward old ideas; in the month before this lecture he sent Neville books written by men Neville had personally known in life as dishonest stock salesmen, 'selling stocks that did not exist.' Neville phoned the friend, returned the books unread, and told him bluntly he would not trust a word the authors wrote, using the episode to illustrate how easily even attentive listeners forget the message once they are away for a while.
