Excerpt from A New Plan for Speedily Increasing the Number of Bee-Hives in Scotland: And Which May Be Extended, With Equal Success, to England, Ireland, America, or to Any Other Part of the World Capable of Producing Flowers Biographers and Philosophers are equally puzzled to account for the great diversity of talents among mankind, and the peculiar bent of genius to be found in each individual. While some pretend to account for these peculiarities, from the accidental circumstances in which individuals happen to be placed, others, with at least equal probability, attribute them to peculiar inclinations, implanted by Nature, or rather the Author of Nature in the human mind. Perhaps both causes must co-operate to produce that degree of enthusiastic fondness for particular pursuits, which, in all ages, has distinguished some individuals in every branch of science, or of art, and which is so humorously entitled by the facetious Sterne, a man's Hobby Horse.
