    “Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.

But it is a remarkable meteorological and psychological fact, that it is rarely known to rain lead with much violence, except on places so constructed.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The moral sense is always supported by the permanent interest of the parties. Else, I know not how, in our world, any good would ever get done.”
