He has no time to be anything but a machine* How can he remember well his ignorance — which his" growth requires — who has so often to use his knowledge ? We should feed and clothe him gratuitously sometimes, and recruit him with our cordials, before we judge of him.

Сторінка 158 - Divinity taking outlines and color — light upon the souls of men as the butterfly, image of the beatified spirit rising from the dust, soars from the shell that held a poor grub, which would never have found wings, had not the stone been lifted.
