(The image as mediator)
‘Life is an art. Life with its creating power, depending for man on the self-yielding of activity and thought, is an endless interplay. And at this moment when we are urged so constantly to look at facts, the objective situation, the concrete circumstance, the actual event, it is especially necessary that we learn how to connect the perceptual planes, how to let every fact contribute to those principles which by use again in the factual world become again transformed, and thus man grows always through his activity.’
Follett, p. 141
