We are provincial, because we do not find at home our standards; because we do not worship truth, but the reflection of truth; because we are warped and narrowed by an exclusive devotion to trade and commerce and manufacturers and agriculture and the like, which are but means, and not the end.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The park is filled with night and fog,
The veils are drawn about the world,”
—Sara Teasdale (1884–1933)
