Eccentricity... It's the justification of all aristocracies. It justifies leisured classes and inherited wealth, privilege, rent and all such injustice. Want to create in the world something worthy, you need to have a class of people wealthy, not dependent on public opinion, free from poverty, leisured, not forced to waste time on dull routine work, which is called the honest performance of his duty. Need a class of people who can think and - to some extent - do what they Like. Need a class, whose members can afford to be eccentric, if you have a tendency to eccentricity, and that eccentricities in General are treated with tolerance and understanding. This is very important if you want to understand the essence of the aristocracy. Not only is it eccentric itself - often in a Grand scale, but is tolerant and even encourages eccentricity in others.

It is a kind of red Indian reservation in the heart of the vast Horde of white, corny mediocre and spiritless, besides grown in the colonies. Within their reservations, the natives are fun - often, admittedly, somewhat rough, somewhat eccentric. And when outside these limits people are born, similar in spirit, they have a place to hide from the hatred that white mediocrity en bons bourgeois down on all that is original and goes beyond the ordinary. Once there is a social revolution, reservations will not be. Redskins will dissolve into a vast sea of white.
