“We are independent of the change we detect. The longer the lever, the less perceptible its motion. It is the slowest pulsation which is the most vital. The hero then will know how to wait, as well as to make haste. All good abides with him who waiteth wisely; we shall sooner overtake the dawn by remaining here than by hurrying over the hills of the west.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“the great orange bed where we lie
like two frozen paintings in a field of poppies.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“What has ever threatened our liberty and prosperity save and except this institution of Slavery?”
—Abraham Lincoln (18091865)
