I rubbed my eyes a little to see if this sunbeam were no illusion; but the solid sense of the book is a sober certainty. It has the best merits, namely, of fortifying and encouraging.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “There would be no society if living together depended upon understanding each other.”
