    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I guard this box, as I would the instrumental parts of my religion, to help my mind on to something better.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    Common experience is the gold reserve which confers an exchange value on the currency which words are; without this reserve of shared experiences, all our pronouncements are cheques drawn on insufficient funds.
