    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    As for farming, I am convinced that my genius dates from an older era than the agricultural. I would at least strike my spade into the earth with such careless freedom but accuracy as the woodpecker his bill into a tree.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    My attachment has neither the blindness of the beginning, nor the microscopic accuracy of the close of such liaisons.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
