From Ralph Waldo Emerson

But when the mind opens, and reveals the laws that traverse the universe, and make things what they are, then shrinks the great world at once in to mere illustration and fable of this mind.
A more secret, sweet, and overpowering beauty appears to man when his heart and mind open to the sentiment of virtue. Then he is instructed in what is above him.
