The downstairs has narrow ideas, egoism, flattery, timekilling, useless traveling, frivolous weekends, continuous radio, tyrannical business and details, vanity; while the upstairs contains silence, solitude, choosing one's company, reading with a purpose, love of nature, good music, best books, and self-reform for a cause.
