"I leave you, home, when I'm ripped from the doorstep by commerce or fate. Then I submit to the awful subway of the world."

Facts are to the mind what food is to the body. On the due digestion of the former depend the strength and wisdom of the one, just as vigor and health depend on the other. The wisest in council, the ablest in debate, and the most agreeable companion in the commerce of human life, is that man who has assimilated to his understanding the greatest number of facts.

— Edmund Burke
