To move, but doth if th other do.”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“One does not arise from such a book as Sister Carrie with a smirk of satisfaction; one leaves it infinitely touched.”

“What care though rival cities soar
Along the stormy coast,
Penns town, New York, Baltimore,
If Boston knew the most!”
