The purpose of life seems to be to acquaint a man with himself and
whatever science or art or course of action he engages in reacts upon
and illuminates the recesses of his own mind. Thus friends seem to be
only mirrors to draw out and explain to us ourselves; and that which
draws us nearer our fellow man, is, that the deep Heart in one, answers
the deep Heart in another, -- that we find we have (a common Nature) --
one life which runs through all individuals, and which is indeed Divine.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
