“I know what say the fathers wise,—
The Book itself before me lies,
Old Chrysostom, best Augustine.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“O God, that one might read the book of fate,
And see the revolution of the times
Make mountains level, and the continent,
Weary of solid firmness, melt itself
Into the sea.”

—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
