Yesterday I spoke to the law students, on Saturday, at some university meeting – everywhere with deserved success. The Sunday speech was prepared very carefully and all that was left for the actual performance was the pretence of spontaneity… A second ‘Ottokar Prohaszka’, they said on the conservative benches. My press review was surprisingly good. Jászi and the others were amazed. Karolyi and Bakonyi came over to me again and again to congratulate me. Somebody embraced me: ‘An orator at last!’ – and there was something in it.
