other, walked into a beauti- ful room and wished instantly that your grooming was more per- fect and your gown more flatter- ing? You had a very ardent de- sire to blend with the beauty which surrounded you instead of being the one discordant note!

A time and place that makes us so ashamed of our indifference that We want to crawl in a hole and stay there!
