A semi-civilized state of society, equally removed from the extremes of barbarity and of refinement, seems to be that particular meridian under which all the reciprocities and gratuities of hospitality do most readily flourish and abound.

Your entire education has deprived you of this capacity because it was preparing you for the future, instead of showing you how to be alive now.
