    “For what are the classics but the noblest thoughts of man? They are the only oracles which are not decayed, and there are such answers to the most modern inquiry in them as Delphi and Dodona never gave. We might as well omit to study Nature because she is old.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
    And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,”
    —John Masefield (1878–1967)
