"Things and persons appear to us according to the light we throw upon them from our own minds. How unconciously we judge others by the light that is within ourselves, condemning or approving them by our own conception of right and wrong, honor and dishonor! We show by our judgement just what the light within us is."
— Laura Ingalls Wilder
