Living for luxury is a brute order of life which deceitfully disrupts the other evolving orders and sabotages their identities. It disrupts the order of an altruistic living by the idea of charity, and the order of an artistic living by the idea of eminence.

Poets, Romantics, and Fantasists take refuge in the scent of a rose out of poise, and put a rose on their chest out of snobbery, but thinkers tell the story of a rose's petals, of its dampened skins, of everything beneath and except the scent.
