“How curious it is, when one takes up a little bit of society (as a geologist crumbles and twists a bit of earth in his hand to ascertain its character and quality) to look into the motives and manouevorings of all the persons connected with it … Sayings and Doings / Second Series.”

Fuller, Margaret. "Reading Notebook 1825–1827." Houghton Library, Harvard University.

Fuller quotes a passage on social observation and then attributes it to 'Sayings and Doings / Second Series.' Theodore Hook's Sayings and Doings: Second Series was published in 1825 (London: Henry Colburn).
