“The true poem is not that which the public read. There is always a poem not printed on paper,... in the poet’s life. It is what he has become through his work. Not how is the idea expressed in stone, or on canvas or paper, is the question, but how far it has obtained form and expression in the life of the artist. His true work will not stand in any prince’s gallery.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I never heard a single expression of fondness for him fall from the lips of any of those who knew him well.”
—Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
