"How much larger your life would be if [you] could become smaller in it. . . . You would begin to be interested in [others]. You would break out of this tiny . . . theatre in which your own little plot is always being played, and you would find yourself under a freer sky, in a street full of splendid strangers."
[G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy (Garden City, New York: Image Books, 1959), pp. 20–21]
