    “Instinct.—When our house burns down, we even forget our lunch.—Yes, but we go back to it later in the ashes.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Digressions, incontestably, are the sunshine;Mthey are the life, the soul of reading!—take them out of this book, for instance,—you might as well take the book along with them;Mone cold external winter would reign in every page of it; restore them to the writer;Mhe steps forth like a bridegroom,—bids All-hail; brings in variety, and forbids the appetite to fail.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life ... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.”
    —Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
