  • Quote

    The human understanding is of its own nature prone to suppose the existence of more order and regularity in the world than it finds. And though there be many things in nature which are singular and unmatched, yet it devises for them parallels and conjugates and relatives which do not exist.

And the words wander away, looking in the nooks and crannies of vocabulary for new company, bad company.
