A room with evidences of being lived in by the family invites me to share the intimacy of that life for the time being; but a too carefully garnished room, which my host occupies only while a guest is present, relegates me to my proper place a stranger within the gates. It was with difficulty the family could be driven into the sitting room in the evening.
"So John relegates me to the post of ferryman to the dead already, does he!" Mr. Carlyon responded. "I had hoped he still allowed me my horse's hoofs and my cave I have been deceiving myself all these years, evidently." A blank look grew in Mrs. Cricklander's eye.

A distinguished observer, Prof.
If one habitually prints the words Insight, Instinct, Intuition, Consciousness with capitals, and relegates equally useful words like senses, experience, fact, logic to lower-case type, one may do it because he is a Carlyle or an Emerson, but the chances are that he is neither.
But whereas Ibn Daud relegates the chapter treating of this principle to a subordinate place, his interest being as he tells us primarily ethical to solve the problem of free will; Maimonides places it in the very centre of his system.
