Out of this precinct, they go for nothing; are of no use in the farm, in the forest, in the market, in war, in the nuptial society, in the literary or scientific circle, at sea, in friendship, in the heaven of thought or virtue.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “No advantages in this world are pure and unmixed.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)
