“It may well be that this man is absurd. But he is not so absurd
as the king, the conceited man, the businessman, and the tippler.
For at least his work has some meaning. When he lights his street
lamp, it is as if he brought one more star to life, or one flower.
When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to
sleep. That is a beautiful occupation. And since it is beautiful,
it is truly useful.”
