“Surely everyone is aware of the divine pleasures which attend a wintry
fireside; candles at four o'clock, warm hearthrugs, tea, a fair
tea-maker, shutters closed, curtains flowing in ample draperies to the
floor, whilst the wind and rain are raging audibly without.”
-Thomas de Quincey, Confessions of an English Opium Eater
