"I wish so to live ever as to derive my satisfactions and inspirations from the commonest events, every-day phenomena, so that what my senses hourly perceive, my daily walk, . . . may inspire me, and I may dream of no heaven but that which lies about me. A person may acquire a taste for wine or brandy, and so lose his love for water, but should we not pity him?"
