Shedding white rings of tumult, building high
Over the chained bay waters Liberty

—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“The African race evidently are made to excel in that department which lies between the sensuousness and the intellectualwhat we call the elegant arts.

—Harriet Beecher Stowe (18111896)
