Pastoral Resources

Conventionality is not morality.

The world is put back by the death of every one who has to sacrifice the development of his or her peculiar gifts to conventionality.

Here society is reduced to its original elements, the whole fabric of art and conventionality is struck rudely to pieces, and men find themselves suddenly brought back to the wants and resources of their original natures.

What worse illness can there be than acute conventionality. You should pray every night that you don't wake up with it.
