3. "How could youths better learn to live than by at once trying the experiment of living? (33)"
"The cost of a thing is the amount of what I will call life which is required to be exchanged for it" (19); "Beware all enterprises that require new clothes, and not rather a new wearer of clothes" (14). Society is a joint-stock company, in which the members agree, for the better securing of his bread to each shareholder, to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater. The virtue in most request is conformity. Self-reliance is its aversion. It loves not realities and creators, but names and customs"--Emerson
