    To-night she will spread her brown hair on his pillow,

    If the aristocrat is only valid in fashionable circles, and not with truckmen, he will never be a leader in fashion; and if the man of the people cannot speak on equal terms with the gentleman, so that the gentleman shall perceive that he is already really of his own order, he is not to be feared.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
