"Eggshells are good, and every egg should have one. It keeps an egg in its proper place, up to the time when it ceases to be the proper place.
"The eggshell in such a crisis, is a glorious tradition, and it can be proved conclusively that the egg could never have become a successful egg without it. "Nevertheless, if the tradition isn't broken when it should be broken, the result is a total loss." Edward A. Filene, Successful Living in this Machine Age, 1931
