    “The axioms of physics translate the laws of ethics. Thus, “the whole is greater than its part;” “reaction is equal to action;” “the smallest weight may be made to lift the greatest, the difference of weight being compensated by time;” and many the like propositions, which have an ethical as well as physical sense. These propositions have a much more extensive and universal sense when applied to human life, than when confined to technical use.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “A whale-ship was my Yale College and my Harvard.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
