    “... It’s a day’s work
    To empty one house of all household goods
    And fill another with ‘em fifteen miles away,
    Although you do no more than dump them down.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    At this season I seldom had a visitor. When the snow lay deepest no wanderer ventured near my house for a week or fortnight at a time, but there I lived as snug as a meadow mouse.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    And in these dark cells,
    packed street after street,
    souls live, hideous yet
    O disfigured, defaced,
    with no trace of the beauty
    men once held so light.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Love’s heralds should be thoughts,
    Which ten times faster glides than the sun’s beams,
    Driving back shadows over low’ring hills.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
