.... mind is your own, and no one can touch it. You can think what you want to think, and no one can change that. He describes this belief in the quote "Nothing is at last sacred, but the integrity of your own mind." People can mess with every other part of you, but your mind they can't reach. Emerson is quoted as saying "My life is for itself and not for a spectacle." I think that he means that each and every person has their own life to live and that they shouldn't devote their time to worrying about what other people are doing.

.... buildings, as from a very small opening in a dome. Still further to satisfactory arrangement, I procured a green folding screen, which might entirely isolate from my sight, though, not remove him from my voice." The quotation describes how the narrator secludes from society. Even his window, usually a form of escape, results in being trapped behind another wall, thus reinforcing his total isolation.

Instead of dismissing him on the spot for refusing to copy, proofread or leave the premises, he tries to find other employment for him, and ....
