Few minds are sunlike, sources of light in themselves and to others: many more are moons that shine with a borrowed radiance. One may easily distinguish the two: the former are always full; the latter only now and then, when their suns are shining full upon them.
~Augustus William Hare and Julius Charles Hare, Guesses at Truth, by Two Brothers, 1827~
