So much analogy there is. But about the Dwelling the idea of an Appurtenance suitable to one's Dignity and character is overwhelmingly the larger one; while in dress this element is quite overshadowed and (in a well-dressed person) almost lost sight of in the idea that the clothes are part of the person. Nor is there any inappropriateness in attaching the Fine Arts to the instinct which expresses ideas in action. For this action does not mean violence. It means that the artist has to struggle with his idea to drag it out of its hiding-place. It is precisely that struggle that makes art to be Art. When it is said "Ars est celare antem," that may be translated "The hard thing is to conceal the struggle." Art is essentially hard. Art and Arms are arduous ploughing.*

*Ploughing in Anglo-Saxon was erian, like Latin arare, Greek ἀρόειν from the root AR of art and arms. It always signifies some hard work, as in run, oar. It is the natural [??] of the laborer.
