Samuel Butler -Author
Every man's work, whether it be literature, or music or pictures or architecture or anything else, is always a portrait of himself.  - Samuel Butler
Samuel Butler (1835-1902) was an iconoclastic Victorian-era English author who published a variety of works. Two of his most famous pieces are the Utopian satire Erewhon and a semi-autobiographical novel published posthumously, The Way of All Flesh. – Wikipedia
