What is in my mind at this point is this. The Ambrose Lightship was a ship that looked like every other ship. It was made to float in water and to travel. But as a matter of fact, it was not like any other ship that passed it, and the difference was not only the obvious difference in size, color, and shape. It was a difference in nature that grew out of a difference in function.
People are like that, and institutions are even more like that.
