A child has an ingrained fancy for coal,.... : Quote by G.K. Chesterton

“ A child has an ingrained fancy for coal, not for the gross materialistic reason that it builds up fires by which we cook and are warmed, but for the infinitely nobler and more abstract reason that it blacks his fingers. ”

G.K. Chesterton
