“Every body we know surrounds himself with a fine house, fine books, conservatory, gardens, equipage, and all manner of toys, as screens to interpose between himself and his guest.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Subject the material world to the higher ends by understanding it in all its relations to daily life and action.”
