“It contributes greatly towards a man’s [or woman’s] moral and
intellectual health, to be brought into habits of companionship with
individuals unlike himself, who care little for his pursuits, and whose
sphere and abilities he must go out of himself to appreciate.” Nathaniel
Hawthorne, The Custom-House.

In desire for the Preservation Trades Network to endeavor towards
inclusion and appreciation of those who are other than ourselves I offer
the above quote.

Thanks,
Ken Follett
