Nearly all our associations are determined by chance or necessity; and restricted within a narrow circle. We cannot know whom we would; and those whom we know, we cannot have at our side when we most need them. All the higher circles of human intelligence are, to those beneath, only momentarily and partially open... there is a society continually open to us, of people who will talk to us as long as we like, whatever our rank or occupation; _ talk to us in the best words they can choose, and of the things nearest their hearts. And this society, because it is so numerous and so gentle, and can be kept waiting around us all day long, _ kings and statesmen lingering patiently, not to grant audience, but to gain it! _ in those plainly furnished and narrow ante-rooms, our bookcase shelves, _ we make no account of that company, _ perhaps never listen to a word they would say, all day long!
