Enquire Within Upon Everything
|
Enquire Within Upon Everything is a late 19th century how-to book for domestic life.
Tim Berners-Lee apparently named his precursor of the World Wide Web, ENQUIRE, after this work.
Whether You Wish to Model a Flower in Wax;
to Study the Rules of Etiquette;
to Serve a Relish for Breakfast or Supper;
to Plan a Dinner for a Large Party or a Small One;
to Cure a Headache;
to Make a Will;
to Get Married;
to Bury a Relative;
Whatever You May Wish to Do, Make, or to Enjoy,
Provided Your Desire has Relation to the Necessities of Domestic Life,
I Hope You will not Fail to 'Enquire Within.'"—Editor.
