    “Weaker and weaker, the sunlight falls
    In the afternoon. The proud and the strong
    Have departed.
    Those that are left are the unaccomplished,
    The finally human,
    Natives of a dwindled sphere.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “From what I have said of the natives of New Holland they may appear to some to be the most wretched people upon earth; but in reality they are far happier than we Europeans, being wholly unacquainted not only with the superfluous, but with the necessary conveniences so much sought after in Europe; they are happy in not knowing the use of them.”
    —James, Captain Cook (1728–1779)
