—James Reston (b. 1909)
“I will no longer be referred to as “Miss” Steinem of Ms. magazine.”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I like sometimes to take rank hold on life and spend my day more as the animals do. Perhaps I have owed to this employment and to hunting, when quite young, my closest acquaintance with Nature.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
