“The great disadvantage, and advantage, of the small urban bourgeois is his limited outlook. He sees the world as a middle- class world, and everything outside these limits is either laughable or slightly wicked.”

Over the proud unfruitful sea,
East and west the ships came back
Happily or unhappily....”
