    “As Jerome expanded, its chances for the title, “the toughest little town in the West,” increased and when it was incorporated in 1899 the citizens were able to support the claim by pointing to the number of thick stone shutters on the fronts of all saloons, gambling halls, and other places of business for protection against gunfire.”
    —Administration in the State of Ariz, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
    They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of
    drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the
    Lord,”
    —Bible: Hebrew Judges (l. V, 10–11)

    “My neighbors tell me of their adventures with famous gentlemen and ladies, what notabilities they met at the dinner-table; but I am no more interested in such things than in the contents of the Daily Times. The interest and the conversation are about costume and manners chiefly; but a goose is a goose still, dress it as you will.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
