“Beyond the horizon, or even the knowledge, of the cities along the coast, a great, creative impulse is at work—the only thing, after all, that gives this continent meaning and a guarantee of the future.

—Vance Palmer (1885–1959)

—Ida M. Tarbell (1857–1944)
“He who rides and keeps the beaten track studies the fences chiefly.”
