But I b’lieve in God an’ the angels,
Ever sence one night last spring.”

“It is easier to sail many thousand miles through cold and storm and cannibals, in a government ship, with five hundred men and boys to assist one, than it is to explore the private sea, the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean of one’s being alone.... It is not worth the while to go round the world to count the cats in Zanzibar.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Luxury, then is a way of
being ignorant, comfortably
An approach to the open market
of least information.”
