form of genius -- is higher, indeed, than genius, as it
needs no explanation. It is of the great facts in the world
like sunlight, or springtime, or the reflection in dark
water of that silver shell we call the moon.

something beautiful, and that all beautiful things are made
by those who strive to make something useful.
