Excerpt from Impressions and Reminiscences I acknowledge that, every evening, I am simple enough to record, in more or less words, the events of the day; and this I have done for twenty years. It does not follow, however, that this journal merits publication; and I doubt if even a few of its pages would be worth the trouble. On reviewing it, I am convinced that it would be principally interesting to myself, resembling, as it does, a journal from shipboard; for we live, for the most part, in the country; and this life is similar to that on a ship that is lying-to.

Excerpt from Along the Friendly Way: Reminiscences and Impressions But there is no uncertainty about the backward view. It is all agleam with the things which that same Hand once dropped about me. From what I know I can trust the still unknown. In spite of sorrows, bewilderments, mistakes - and worse, I am so far along. The retrospect of life is a happy pastime, - that is, when I am wise enough to forget some things. Why should I not forget them, since the good book assures me that He no longer remem bers them against me? If it gives an Old man pleasure to think over the past, it may be profitable to others who are coming the same way that he should talk out loud what he thinks.

Excerpt from Recollections and Impressions In giving these Recollections and Impressions to the public, I feel some sort of explanation is due, - and the explanation is, that they were written at long intervals during the last four or five years, entirely for my grandchildren, and are therefore of a more domestic character than if a larger audience had been anticipated. I have never kept a diary, and am conscious that what I have written is often very desultory, and at all times it is difficult to keep reminiscences from being a dry catalogue of names. Had I even suppressed the personal note, the sketches of well-known people who came into our life might appear too like detached portraits, lacking a frame. Such as they are, I shall feel grateful and pleased if my readers find some little interest in any of them.

Excerpt from Musical Reminiscences and Impressions I had materials of sufficient interest at my disposal. I had not, however, written many pages, before I began to live again in the past. Incidents which i I had almost forgotten came before me as vividly as if they had occurred but yesterday. I saw, in imagination, the faces and figures of musicians, the lives and doings of whom the younger generations read as matters of musical history. For me, whilst penning my recollections, these musicians of the past were just as present as they were years ago when I was holding converse with them, or when I saw them at the festival or concert in which they were taking part. Some of these celebrities still live in their works, and are thus in a manner present amongst us; but the great singers and the world famed executants I have written about are, for the most part, but a name to those who have not had the privilege, as I had, of hearing them. The voice of many a celebrated singer of bygone days still rings in my ears, although now for ever mute. I.

Excerpt from Impressions and Comments: Second Series 1914-1920 February 22. - It often strikes me how different reading is when one has garnered in the greater part of life's experiences from what it was when one was still at the seed-time of life. When one is very young, to read is as it were to pour a continuous stream of water on a parched and Virginal plain. The soil seems to have an endless capacity to drink up the stream, sometimes with prolonged perpetual rapture, sometimes with impartial calm in difference, endlessly, unpausingly, with never a disturbing echo.

Excerpt from The World of the Theatre: Impressions and Memoirs, March 1920-1921 Before presenting this batch of criticisms in all the impersonality of their original journalism, I suppose I must introduce myself and shew my credentials. This is rather a difficult matter; for, like other folk, I may not see myself quite as others see me; and my theatrical credentials are of such a kind that it is impossible for me to draw them up myself without either seeming egotistical or doing an injustice to the importance of the movement I had, and still have, at heart. In this dilemma I had resolved not to introduce myself at all when it occurred to me that I might extricate myself by taking the opinion of my old friend Bernard Shaw. He is my contemporary and was my colleague in those days when, as I think, I did the State some service. If he cannot introduce me nobody can. I wrote him an artless enquiry as to what he thinks I ought to say about myself. Here is his reply: "My Dear Grein: It is now very close on thirty years since you madly began an apparently hopeless attempt to bring the English theatre into some sort of relation with contemporary culture. Matthew Arnold had suggested that step; but nobody in the theatre took the slightest notice of him, because nobody in the theatre knew of the existence of such a person as Matthew Arnold. That was what was the matter with the theatre then. There was nothing wrong with the acting: I cannot remember any actor or actress then occupying a leading position who could be called an amateur or a duffer: they had all been "through the mill," and could make intruders who had not, look ridiculous. The theatres were better managed than they are now: the front of the house was not always controlled by the bar; and at the best theatres all petty cadgings like charges for programs and cloak room fees were abolished. The public was so seriously interested in the theatre that it booked seats months in advance: in fact, it was by the booking that a manager knew when his run was coming to an end. Photographs of actors and actresses cost a shilling each; and at this price the Stereoscopic Company did a big trade in them.

Excerpt from Memories and Impressions: A Study in Atmospheres "My Dear Kids - Accept this book, the best Christmas present that I can give you. You will have received before this comes to be printed, or at any rate before - bound, numbered, and presumably indexed - it will have come in book form into your hands - you will have received the amber necklaces and the other things that are the outward and visible sign of the presence of Christmas. But certain other things underlie all the presents that a father makes to his children. Thus there is the spiritual gift of heredity. "It is with some such idea in my head - with the idea, that is to say, of analyzing for your benefit what my heredity had to bestow upon you - that I began this book. That, of course, would be no reason for making it a 'book, ' which is a thing that appeals to many thousands of people, if the appeal can only reach them.
