    REST IN PEACE. THE MISTAKE SHALL NOT BE REPEATED.
    —Anonymous. Quoted in The Harvest of a Quiet Eye, Alan L. Mackay (1977)

    For the universe has three children, born at one time, which reappear, under different names, in every system of thought, whether they be called cause, operation, and effect; or, more poetically, Jove, Pluto, Neptune; or, theologically, the Father, the Spirit, and the Son; but which we will call here, the Knower, the Doer, and the Sayer. These stand respectively for the love of truth, for the love of good, and for the love of beauty.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
