❝That of all the several ways of beginning a book which are now in practice throughout the known world, I am confident my own way of doing it is the best ─ I’m sure it is the most religious ─ for I begin with writing the first sentence ─ and trusting to Almighty God for the second.❞

─ Laurence Sterne, The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, 1767
