Promising excerpts that I might want to use

Domesticating things

From http://peacematters.com/judgments-the-comfort-of-labels (didn't read the whole blog post)

A few weeks ago I was reading from Evelyn Underhill’s book Practical Mysticism ”Because mystery is horrible to us, we have agreed for the most part to live in a world of labels;” a light bulb in my mind went off. Of course, maybe labeling and judging is about safety and comfort, even belonging and community. If we label, especially when we are experiencing discomfort with someone, possibly we are provided some relief from our discomfort by classifying what is wrong (the label, judgment or blame).
