    How many things there are concerning which we might well deliberate whether we had better know them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When an Indian is burned, his body may be broiled, it may be no more than a beefsteak. What of that? They may broil his heart, but they do not therefore broil his courage,—his principles. Be of good courage! That is the main thing.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
