    And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people.” And immediately they left their nets and followed him.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 1:17,18.

    Formerly, when lying awake at midnight in those woods, I had listened to hear some words or syllables of their language, but it chanced that I listened in vain until I heard the cry of the loon. I have heard it occasionally on the ponds of my native town, but there its wildness is not enhanced by the surrounding scenery.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
