    “He promised
    that life would go on as usual,
    that treaties would be signed, and everyone—

    a world of money, promise and disease.”
    —James Welch (b. 1940)

    “A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
