“Debt, grinding debt, whose iron face the widow, the orphan, and the sons of genius fear and hate;Mdebt, which consumes so much time, which so cripples and disheartens a great spirit with cares that seem so base, is a preceptor whose lessons cannot be forgone, and is needed most by those who suffer from it most.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“With crayons the child draws a rigid house
and a winding pathway. Then the child
puts in a man with buttons like tears”
