Tip of the iceberg?

--
HERETICS IV. Mr. Bernard Shaw. By Gilbert K. Chesterton

In the glad old days, before the rise of modern morbidities, when genial old
Ibsen filled the world with wholesome joy, and the kindly tales of the
forgotten Emile Zola kept our firesides merry and pure, it used to be thought
a disadvantage to be misunderstood. It may be doubted whether it is always or
even generally a disadvantage. The man who is misunderstood has always this
advantage over his enemies, that they do not know his weak point or his plan
of campaign.
