    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Indeed, the Englishman’s history of New England commences only when it ceases to be New France.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “All history becomes subjective; in other words there is properly no history, only biography.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
