Enjoying an intimate acquaintance with all their particularities in turn, he would naturally regard an abstract conception in which these were unified as a thing more misleading than enlightening.”
—William James (1842–1910)

Was chewing little bits of String.
At last he swallowed some which tied
Itself in ugly Knots inside.”
