    “The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.”
    —C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)

    “I pledge you—I pledge myself to a new deal for the American people.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    “So nigh is grandeur to our dust,
    So near is God to man,
    When Duty whispers low, Thou must,
    The youth replies, I can.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
