“I can’t make head or tail of Life. Love is a fine thing, Art is a fine thing, Nature is a fine thing; but the average human mind and spirit are confusing beyond measure. Sometimes I think that all our learning is the little learning of the maxim. To laugh at a Roman awe-stricken in a sacred grove is to laugh at something today.”

“A man must be clothed with society, or we shall feel a certain bareness and poverty, as of a displaced and unfurnished member.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
