The Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction, Ursula K. Le Guin, 1986
“If it is a human thing to do to put something you want, because
it's useful, edible, or beautiful, into a bag, or a basket, or a bit of
rolled bark or leaf, or a net woven of your own hair, or what have
you, and then take it home with you, home being another, larger
kind of pouch or bag, a container for people, and then later on you
take it out and eat it or share it or store it up for winter in a solider
container or put it in the medicine bundle or the shrine or the
museum, the holy place, the area that contains what is sacred, and
then next day you probably do much the same again-if to do that is
human, if that's what it takes, then I am a human being after all.
Fully, freely, gladly, for the first time.”
