“Rigid, harsh, sour, crabbed, rough-hewn spirits are unfit for union. There is no sweetness, no amiableness, no pleasantness in them; they please themselves in a rugged austereness, but are pleasing to no one else in all their ways. They will abate nothing of their own, nor yield anything to others (Burroughs, Irenicum, p. 194).
