—Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)
“Haven’t you heard, though,
About the ships where war has found them out
At sea, about the towns where war has come
Through opening clouds at night with droning speed
Further o’erhead than all but stars and angels
And children in the ships and in the towns?”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Instead of noblemen, let us have noble villages of men.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
