The Pleasure Principle

,

Beautiful organisation has a different feeling from ordinary tidiness. Tidiness may clear the evidence of life. Beautiful organisation welcomes life back in, but with better manners. It does not remove the book from the chair because reading is inconvenient. It gives the book a table, a lamp, and perhaps a small place to return when the chapter is finished. It does not banish the blanket because blankets can look untidy. It folds it where it looks inviting. It does not hide every practical object. It makes the practical objects handsome enough to belong.
